The Fred Hollows Foundation NZ works for a world where no one is needlessly blind, restoring sight and training eye doctors and nurses across the Pacific region.

This January, help us reach more people who are blind and don't need to be. Register for the Waiheke Wharf2Wharf fun run and walking event and get fundraising to help restore sight while you run or walk!

In the Pacific region, four out of five people who are blind don’t need to be, their condition is preventable or treatable. By crossing the island of Waiheke on Wharf2Wharf, you'll help people on islands throughout the Pacific.

Transform someone's life with the gift of sight - make a donation to The Fred Hollows Foundation NZ today.

What? Run or walk the Fullers Waiheke Wharf2Wharf event and fundraise to restore sight.

When? Saturday, 17 January 2015

Where? Waiheke Island

About us

The Fred Hollows Foundation carries on the work of a legendary New Zealander, the late Professor Fred Hollows. Fred was an internationally acclaimed eye surgeon and social justice activist who championed the right of all people to high quality and affordable eye care. The Fred Hollows Foundation shares Fred’s vision of a world where no one is needlessly blind, and works to end avoidable blindness in 30 developing countries across Asia, Africa and the Pacific.

The Fred Hollows Foundation NZ works in the Pacific Islands, Papua New Guinea and Timor-Leste where four out of five people who are blind don’t need to be; their condition is preventable or treatable. We restore sight to the needlessly blind and train local eye health specialists to provide eye care services in their own communities.
