If you are celebrating an event such as an anniversary, wedding, birth or birthday and instead of gifts you would prefer friends and family to donate gifts to Sightsavers, there are a number of great ways you can do this:

Ask for gifts from Sightsavers Gift of Sight

Our range of gifts include an adult cataract operation, two trichiasis operations, a Braille kit and spectacles.

The money from your gift will be used to make a real difference to lives in the developing world. Visit www.giftofsight.co.uk to find out more.

Set up a Justgiving donation page

With your own fundraising page on Justgiving, your friends and family can visit your page to see a personal message and photo from you and most importantly, they can make online donations. It's quick and simple to set up and to make payments. You even have your own web address to email to everyone to find your page.

You can now also add a link to your Justgiving donation page on your Facebook and Myspace page.

Another great way of letting your friends know about your celebration is Moo cards; on this site you can design your own cards to advertise your Justgiving web page address.

Ask for cards from our card shop

Visit the Sightsavers card shop and for each card that is purchased a donation is made to Sightsavers. There is also the option to add an additional donation along with the card.

For those of you who would prefer e-cards we also have this option, visit our e-card shop and for each e-card sent £1 is donated to Sightsavers. There is also the option to make an extra donation if the sender wished.
