Donate

Our mission is simple yet profound: to create a blindness-free India by addressing the critical shortage of donated corneas. We are a team of dedicated individuals working to bring light into the lives of those living with corneal blindness. Through strategic partnerships, public awareness campaigns, and a compassionate approach, we turn the selfless act of eye donation into a life-changing reality.

Donation Request for Project Kannoli 1000

We invite you to be a part of a movement that is changing lives. Your generous donation will directly support Project Kannoli 1000, our strategic initiative to provide the gift of sight to up to 1,000 individuals in the Erode district.

While we have a proven track record of successful eye donations and a dedicated team, our primary challenge is a lack of a dedicated transport system. This crucial piece of infrastructure is the key to scaling our operations and ensuring that every potential eye donation is a successful one.

By donating, you will help us acquire a dedicated vehicle and establish a 24/7 tele-caller service. This will allow our team to respond to eye donation calls promptly, guaranteeing that donated eyes are retrieved within the critical 6-hour window and are viable for transplantation.

Project Kannoli 1000: Funding Breakup

  • Your contribution will be used for the following:

  • Dedicated Vehicle Acquisition: This will be a multi-purpose Omni/Echo van to serve as our mobile eye collection unit.

  • Medical Equipment: This includes a medical kit and cooler box to ensure the safe and sterile transport of donated eyes.

  • 24/7 Tele-Caller Service: This round-the-clock service will enable us to respond to all eye donation calls without delay.

  • Volunteer Incentives: This covers basic expenses for our volunteers who are the backbone of our operation.

Why Your Support Matters
Corneal blindness is a major cause of visual impairment in India, and while Tamil Nadu is a leader in eye donations, there is still a significant shortfall. By supporting Project Kannoli 1000, you are not just funding a project; you are directly investing in a tangible solution to a critical public health issue. You are enabling individuals to regain their independence, pursue their education, and contribute to society. Your partnership will create a lasting legacy of compassion and serve as a model for effective community-driven initiatives.

Pledge to Donate Your Eyes

By pledging to donate your eyes, you are making a profound commitment to give the gift of sight after your lifetime. This simple act of compassion can transform the lives of two individuals living with corneal blindness. It is a decision that leaves a lasting legacy of light and hope.

Pledging your eyes does not require any legal paperwork or financial commitment. It simply communicates your wish to your family, who will then contact us after your demise. We encourage you to discuss this decision with your family members to ensure they are aware of your noble wish.
