My husband had recently participated in the SEF's half marathon and I did assist with filling water in the cups for the runners for some time. It was a great experience and felt good at heart to offer such help to the runners and to the organization as well. Kudos to the Organization as well as the people who run it & who devote their time ,energy and money to organize such events, wherein such monetary benefits goes to the poor and the needy. Most of all, we should be proud to be associated with such an organization who helps someone to see the world!!

It is my honor and privilege to be associated with such a fine organization that has been working tirelessly to help cure blindness in India with innovative programs and care facilities in various parts of India. It is amazing to see how within a decade Sankara has built state of the art hospitals in various parts of India and providing ongoing support to spread the eye care that is necessary, especially in rural parts of India. I am glad to be a donor to such a worthy cause.

It could do wonders. Approximately 87% of the money raised in the US goes directly to the blind in India. They have increased free eye surgeries in India, up from 8,000 annually to its current rate of 56,000 annually, just in a few short years.
Ways to make it better...
They organize more charity (fund raising) events
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
Visibility, relatively they are unknown to many people
One thing I'd also say is that...
They should try increase the awarness of others about the problems.
