13-Year-Old Launches $1Mil Campaign to Save Children’s Sight, One Million $1 Bills

Did you know that an estimated 19 million children worldwide are visually impaired, and of those affected, 12 million have conditions that could easily be diagnosed and corrected?

Lillian Pravda, an inspirational young lady born with a cataract who received sight-saving surgeries at only 9-weeks-old, founded Vision For and From Children at the age of eight. The organization raises money to provide children without access to eye care, surgery and vision services. After years of building awareness, the organization has raised nearly $100K and helped more than 24,000 children.

The now 13-year-old, award-winning philanthropist is taking her mission global with the launch of the “One Million $1 Bills” campaign which will provide the gift of sight to children through vision-related surgery, outreach and services. Funds raised from the campaign will also help build state-of-the-art ophthalmology centers in regions in the U.S. and beyond that currently do not have proper eye treatment available. 

Please visit Vision For and From Children, so you can learn more about the organization and donate to the cause if you choose to.
