Hi Friend,
Dr. Sheetal Pundir has a passion for helping others. Shaped by her childhood growing up in poverty, she was inspired to join Orbis’s team of Volunteer Faculty: medical professionals who give up their free time and energy to teach and train local eye teams.
Humbled by her Flying Eye Hospital experience, Dr. Pundir says: “As one of the few women from my community to go to university, I am conscious of how fortunate I am. My upbringing in extreme poverty has taught me the importance of valuing chances. The trip to Bangladesh was one such chance. Working alongside my Bangladeshi colleagues, sharing knowledge, and being part of Orbis's vision is an incredible privilege. I learned as much from them as they did from me, reinforcing the value of cross-cultural exchange and collaborative learning.”

Thanks to supporters like you, Dr. Pundir was able to fulfill her wish to help others less fortunate than herself—a commitment you both share.
We’d like to say a huge thank you to both our supporters and our volunteers because you truly make the world a better place.
Team Orbis
