Sight First

scrivi al Lions Club di Cernusco

I Lions sono riconosciuti in tutto il mondo per l'opera che svolgono a favore dei non-vedenti. Quest'opera ebbe inizio quando Helen Keller lanciò la sfida ai Lions di divenire "cavalieri dei non-vedenti nella crociata contro le tenebre" in occasione della convention internazionale del 1925. Cliccare qui per leggere il suo commovente discorso.

Oggi, oltre al programma internazionale SightFirst, i Lions allargano il raggio della propria azione nel campo della prevenzione delle malattie della vista attraverso innumerevoli attività:

  • I Lions offrono 600 mila esami del glaucoma e permettono di realizzare 20 mila trapianti della cornea ogni anno.
     
  • I Lions creano ed appoggiano numerose banche degli occhi, centinaia di cliniche, ospedali e centri di ricerche scientifiche in tutto il mondo.
     
  • I Lions offrono gratuitamente ogni anno esami della vista, occhiali, testi in caratter Braille e cani guida.
     
  • I Lions raccolgono oltre 3 milioni di occhiali da vista usati per la distribuzione nei paesi in via di sviluppo. I Lions sono anche impegnati in una vasta gamma di altre attività per migliorare le loro comunità ed aiutare i bisognosi, per esempio fornendo assistenza ai menomati dell'udito ed impegnandosi per la prevenzione e l'educazione del diabete, i progetti per la protezione dell'ambiente ed i programmi per i giovani.
