Dear
John,
Can you imagine growing up in a remote village and seeing many of your
friends and neighbors slowly going blind, tears running down their
faces because of the terrible pain that never goes away? Even worse,
what if you spent your life fearing this would happen to you, too?
This is the awful reality of trachoma, the bacterial infection that is
the world's leading cause of preventable blindness, which now
threatens 157 million people. But trachoma is not only preventable, it
is also treatable, so a person's eyesight can often be saved
before it is lost.
Today, when you make a #GivingTuesday gift to end blinding trachoma in
Mali and Niger, the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation will match your gift,
doubling its impact. This means you can help twice as many people
escape the pain of trachoma and potentially save their sight!
HOW YOUR GIFT WILL HELP

You can bring this remarkably effective strategy to the people of Mali
and Niger.
For more than 35 years, The Carter Center has proven that people can
improve their own lives when provided with the necessary skills,
knowledge, and access to resources. This is why the SAFE strategy is
so effective, and how Ghana most recently became completely trachoma
free. Now Mali and Niger are ready to defeat this disease. They need
your help today.
This is a limited-time match, so please be as generous as possible.
Thank you for taking this #GivingTuesday to help the people of Mali
and Niger escape blinding trachoma. We look forward to bringing you
updates on our progress.
Sincerely,
Jimmy Carter
Co-Founder and Trustee
The Carter Center
