In the next 60 seconds, twelve people in our world will go blind -- one of them a child. Hello, I'm Jimmy Carter. Experts predict in the next 15 years, the number of blind people could double to 75 million, yet 80% of blindness is preventable. Lions Club International has long been a champion of blindness prevention. I know, because I am a Lion. Since 1990, Lions Clubs have saved the vision of 24 million people in countless communities through the SightFirst program. Now, Lions have launched campaign SightFirst II to expand blindness prevention programs worldwide, and save the sight of 37 million more. Vision improves lives. We need your help. Support your local Lions club. Save sight through Campaign SightFirst II. Donate. Volunteer. Get involved. For more information, visit www.lionsclubs.org.
