Sight 2020 Direct is a charity that helps young children in Malawi

They help little children who are blind, to live an active and healthy life. 

Recently they came into our school to thank us for the amazing fundraising that we did for them, and the actual founder of the charity talked to us in assembly!

He is a specialist eye surgeon who operates on people to help them see properly. In July, his charity will be going back over to Malawi to play with little children who are registered blind, and they are going to play blind football with them. This is great as blind children usually don't get noticed, and they just get ignored by horrible people.

Sight 2020 Direct also gets funding to do eye tests on children and when necessary, they will give them glasses. When we asked the founder if his dream is to expand his charity, he stated that he would love to expand and help children in other countries if he could become more popular.

I think that this a great charity and we should really awareness and give lots of support!
