This was a visit to a local eye hospital. This is one of 8 hospitals in India under the same group that performs similar outreach to CBF. However, they fund their outreach events by offering services to the general public (20% revenue) to fund their 80% outreach efforts. This seems like a sound model. I met with the director and the camp organizers to better understand the systems and processes. I read brochures, watched a video, and sat through a presentation. On one side were facilities for the paying customers and on the other were facilities for patients brought in from local eye fairs. I was excited to see that there was another foundation performing similar outreach. This would allow me to evaluate the best practices in fulfilling our mission.
