Maasai Mara, Kenya, Vision loss affects 285 million people worldwide and 90% reside in developing countries. Vision affects a person’s ability to work, to obtain an education and the ability to take care of their family with dignity. Vision loss is directly correlated to poverty. Join me in capturing the beauty in nature and the wilderness as we embark on a photographic journey to capture images in Africa. Thanks to JD printing in Flint, Michigan the images will be sold to help outfit the screening vehicle for telemedicine. More on the ophthalmology screening vehicle project we recently unveiled at the Rotary Club of Flint talk.
