Brazil - 2005

I am a member of the Rotary Club of Paracatu200 in District 4760 - Brazil. We just completed a wonderful project that served more than 1000 people of our city. The results were as follows:

322 pairs of glasses were distributed
Many referrals were made for Cataract Surgery.

The event was divided in two main stages:

The first happened on 04 and June 2005 when we screened all in attendance.
The second stage was August 06 where we delivered the glasses.
