How we work

We make trips to rural underserved communities and diagnose visual issues in those who don’t have the means to access proper medical care. If needed, we then provide the necessary eye-wear, or help patients receive the treatments needed.

WHY WE HELP

Vision is extremely important within the everyday lives of students. Without proper vision, students are not able to, for example, see the blackboard in class. Insufficient vision limits students’ education, and without an education, students will be forced to work menial low paying jobs, hurting not only their families due to the lack of financial stability, but also society at large because without an education, students will not be able to positively contribute to their communities. We want to destroy the limitations made by a lack of vision, by providing eye care to those in need.

VISION

String for Sight envisions a world where treatable afflictions like cataracts do not leave people blind for decades. We envision a world where children in villages do not struggle for want of a simple pair of glasses. We envision a world where everyone has access to an adequate standard of eye care.

MISSION

Strings for Sight aims to use music to raise awareness and funds for eye care centers serving impoverished communities in rural India. We host concerts and performances highlighting the need for ophthalmic care in certain areas and hand the proceeds over to our partner hospitals and charities.
