Quang Ngai Authorities have just approved a child eye care project funded by Fred Hollows Foundation (FHF), a non-profit community-based NGO set up in 1992 in Australia by the late optician professor Fred Hollows.
The project, with its total fund of some USD 200,000, aims at providing better eye care services to the disadvantaged children in the province’s districts of Binh Son, Son Tinh, Tu Nghia, Nghia Hanh, Mo Duc, Duc Pho, and Quang Ngai City.
Recently in 2007, the Foundation launched a 3-year project of improving blindness prevention and treatment capacity via community-based yey care programs in Quang Ngai sta the expense of approximately USD 300,000.
