Year-End Giving Campaign 2025: Cure Cataracts
This holiday season, give the gift of sight and sponsor a cataract surgery for a person suffering from blindness in Mali. Since 2013, our Cure Cataract program has restored the vision of more than 42,000 people through a simple surgical procedure. Your donation covers the cost of the surgery and follow-up care, as well as preventative medical checkups for 15 people at our clinics.
Our Goal:
600 Cataract Surgeries By Dec. 31
Together, we are working to provide cataract surgeries to hundreds of people before the year ends.

“This project has changed their lives. I hope it continues and reaches even more families, here in Mali and elsewhere. An initiative like this, which provides free care, deserves to last forever. […] May God bless the initiators of this project and strengthen them. May He help them extend this kindness beyond what they had imagined.”

End the Year With Generosity
Imagine being unable to afford the simple eye surgery that would let you see the world again after a lifetime of blindness. Now, imagine how grateful you would be if someone opened their heart to you, and provide the care you needed.
During Embrace Relief’s Year-End Giving 2025 campaign, you can be that someone.
As we approach the giving season around Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year’s, now is the time to make the biggest impact possible – and the gift of sight is perhaps the greatest gift you can give! Donate today and help bring joy to our friends in Mali.
