On #GivingTuesday Give the Gift of Sight

This #GivingTuesday Orbis encourages supporters to give the gift of sight by participating in our matching challenge. One of our generous donors has agreed to match all #GivingTuesday donations up to $25,000. Funds will support our vision restoring work in places like Bangladesh, where four-year-old Halima had two cataracts removed by an Orbis-trained surgeon.

Read more about Halima’s story on our website .

Orbis will also be participating in Blackbaud’s partnership with NASDAQ on #GivingTuesday. Orbis will assist in ringing the NASDAQ bell next Tuesday morning, an image of Halima will appear on the NASDAQ tower, and Orbis will participate in a Facebook Live panel at noon.

Join us this #GivingTuesday and give the gift of sight to children like Halima. Visit to learn more.
