Project Goal #1
• To set up an Optometry Office in the Blind Institute of Chiclayo in Peru; a clinic built by the Rotary club.
• Purpose: to test the eyes of poor people, then fit them with glasses and also detect the early onset of blindness.
• Further potential: to supply basic equipment to elementary school teachers that allows pre-screening of students.
13
Project Goal #2
• To supply 7 suites of refurbished hospital equipment to the Regional Hospital de Mercedes in Chiclayo.
• Purpose: to help service the medical needs of poor people in Chiclayo.
14
Rotary Foundation Matching Grant
• These Rotary clubs have contributed funds and effort to the Peru project:
» Sturbridge, MA» Stourbridge, England» Brookfields, MA» Westford, MA» Lowell, MA» Milford, MA» Chiclayo, Peru
• D-7910 matched the money and the Rotary Foundation matched it even more.

How many Eye-Glasses is enough?
• Discussions with optometrists in New England and Australia suggested that 50,000 pairs of used glasses is appropriate. HELP!
• A Rotarian in the Framingham club, who is also a Lions club member, worked the magic and a great new relationship has been forged!
• The Lions of District 33-S, in particular the Dighton club, are also very active in eye-glass projects. They donated 14,000 pairs of glasses to this joint project!

So the fun begins, because:
• Peruvian State of Lambayeque will truck
the container from Paita to Chiclayo.
• Work closely with the Chiclayo club.
• Celebrate this wonderful collaboration of
non-profit organizations.
Last Thought
• Think about the leverage that is available by partnering with other organizations.
• That is strongly advocated by the Rotary Foundation.

It’s COOL !
