Updates what we intend to add to the blockchain in addition to what we already do
Love is not patronizing and charity isn’t about pity, it is about love
So for quite some time now we have been updating the community on only the outreaches and most of the activities that @better vision has been undergoing, well that is the sole purpose of the @bettervision account and we deem it necessary to continue to do so however quite recently we were contemplating the steemians hardly knows the volunteers of @bettervision community and that we should get them out there to the community for steemians to familiarize themselves with us.
Again, we talked about how we could share our love and what we do with the community since apparently all they get to see is the benefits others are getting, atleast we have to add our quota to the blockchain and not only to the outside world because of which we have decided to also enlighten the community here about ocular first aids, pathologies and general eye care from time to time, who knows someone’s vision may just end up being saved through these educational moments.
It is our hope and enthusiasm that these additions will be met and accepted by the community and that you would continue to show us the love and care as you have been doing all this while.
Giving is not just only about making a donation but giving a helping hand and showing love
What is @bettervision about?
@bettervision is is a project initiated by @nattybongo and friends to give back to the society the knowledge and skill acquired through the Optometric Studies in Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Ghana.It is an outreach system where we visit the less privileged communities to offer free eye screening services and education to the people within the community
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
To reduce or prevent vision loss through diseases such as glaucoma, cataract and refractive errors.
To enlighten the majority of the Ghanaian population about the importance of proper visual care.
To conscientize people on the need for regular eye checks
To get more people to have their wards screened within the Critical periods of a Child’s Vision Development; thus from ages 3 to till about 10 years.
To help the blind and people with low vision live a better life within the society through education of the general public to stop stigmatization.
Our greatest gratitude goes to @fundition @adollaraday @surfyogi @girlsfoundation @bleepcoin @ackza and @wafrica for helping to make the aims and objectives of @bettervision a reality.
