Resources
School's Pack: Vision Aid Overseas has a PowerPoint presentation that is suitable for Year 2 children. Download our Schools Presentation.
Video: Vision Aid Overseas has a number of short videos on your YouTube channel that you could show to your class. Alternatively, if you would like a DVD version please contact us.
Schools that teach Global Eye may wish to help Vision Aid Overseas in other ways. Organising a fundraising event is a fantastic way to engage with school children about the importance of eye care and charities. As little as £5 can pay for an eye test and a pair of spectacles for a child in Ethiopia. If you would like to organise a fundraising event at your school, please contact Vision Aid Overseas.
