United States
Support from foundations registered in the United States.
Sightsavers works in partnership with foundations in the United States to achieve our shared goals. This support is vital to enable us to deliver strategic, targeted interventions across Africa and Asia and the Caribbean to eliminate avoidable blindness and improve equality of opportunity for adults and children with disabilities.
We can develop multi-year or one-off partnerships of all different sizes to suit the needs of your foundation. Our partners either allow us to use funds flexibly across the organisation, or directly support a specific programme in line with their own strategic goals. In return, we are accountable to our donors and provide detailed reporting as required.
Sightsavers is supported by Sightsavers International Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, donations to which are tax deductible to the extent allowed by U.S. law.
