About The Fred Hollows Foundation

The Fred Hollows Foundation is an international development organisation working to prevent blindness and restore sight. We continue to carry on the legacy of Professor Fred Hollows, who believed every person had the right to quality eye care, no matter where they live. The Foundation is known around the world as an organisation that works with purpose and determination, with a reputation for excellence and a track record of making change happen.

The Foundation works in more than 25 countries throughout Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and the Pacific, as well as Australia. We have restored sight to more than 3 million people worldwide. We have an ambitious five-year strategic plan that aims to realise our vision of a world in which no person is needlessly blind or vision impaired, and Indigenous Australians exercise their right to sight and good health.
