Matching each dollar doubles our impact in restoring sight

Every dollar raised by Seeing is Believing is matched by our founders, Standard Chartered Bank. We call it the 1 + 1 principle - and it means we can make twice the difference to millions of lives.

Money is raised for our projects by the general public and Standard Chartered's staff, its clients, and supporters.

Standard Chartered's commitment to matching every donation doubles the impact Seeing is Believing can have.  In addition, Standard Chartered covers all the administrative costs for Seeing is Believing so you know that your donation will go straight to delivering projects on the ground.

All funds are invested in comprehensive, sustainable eye care projects globally through International Agency for Prevention of Blindnesss (IAPB) and its membership of leading eye-care non-governmental organisations, to tackle avoidable blindness.

That means we focus on building long-term, local capacity, with the right training, the right infrastracture and resources to tackle avoidable blindness where the need is greatest - and make a tangible, positive difference to millions of lives.

 

“Our commitment to partnership extends to donors as well. That's why we match your gift to Seeing is Believing every time you donate.”
Richard Meddings (Chairman of Seeing is Believing)
