Help us reach more families.
Help us reach more families.
During these times of great uncertainty, you can help families create positive ripples of change in the world.
Together, we must take action to ensure no one is left out.
Helen Keller Intl establishes deep partnerships with the communities we serve and engages with them directly to learn about the challenges their families face. We listen to mothers, fathers, and community leaders to understand the limitations of local food and health systems. Though the details are specific to each community, the outcomes are often the same: poor nutrition, a lack of affordable vision care, and the debilitating effects of disease.
The simple, cost-effective solutions that you help Helen Keller deliver are improving lives on a large scale and for the long term.
Helen Keller wrote, “The world is not only moved by mighty shoves…but also by the aggregate of tiny pushes.” By reaching one child, one family, one community at a time, you are helping to create positive ripple effects that protect vision, improve health, and establish more secure food systems — not just today, but for years to come.
The positive ripple effects — often across generations — are evident.
With your partnership, we are ensuring that families who live in chronically under-resourced communities have the support they need to reshape their futures.
