Medecines Sans Frontieres - Doctors without Borders

Médecins Sans Frontières is the world's leading independent organisation for emergency medical humanitarian aid. We help victims of conflict, respond to chronic food shortages, epidemics and natural disasters. Every year Médecins Sans Frontières sends around 3,000 international field workers to work alongside 22,000 national staff in countries around the world. There they work together to bring emergency medical assistance to the people who need it most and may otherwise have no access to even the most basic life-saving health services.

 

 

St Vincent de Paul

The Society aspires to be recognised as a caring Catholic charity offering “a hand up” to people in need. We do this by respecting their dignity, sharing our hope, and encouraging them to take control of their destiny.

 

 

Fred Hollows Foundation

The Fred Hollows Foundation sees a world in which no one is needlessly blind, and Indigenous Australians enjoy the same health and life expectancy as other Australians.

The work of The Foundation is inspired by the late Professor Fred Hollows (1929-1993). Fred was an eye doctor, a skilled surgeon of international renown and a social justice activist who championed the right of all people to high quality and affordable eye care and to good health.

The Foundation works in over 25 countries across the world and has gone on to restore sight to well over two million people.

The Foundation works with local partners to:

  • Train local doctors and health workers
  • Screen and perform surgeries to restore sight to people suffering from cataract, trachoma and diabetic retinopathy
  • Build and upgrade facilities
  • Develop new technology and provide equipment
  • Lobby governments to change policies and improve health systems

In 2016, The Fred Hollows Foundation supported over one million eye operations and treatments for the first time in a single year.
