"Thanks KTF for bringing me back to the world", John said to our eye-testing teams, perfectly summarising the incredible impact that happens when you give someone back their sight. 🌏 👓 John, a teacher at Bareji High School, lives a 2-3 hour drive from Popondetta but has recently made several unsuccessful trips there in hopes of getting an eye test done. When he heard that the EyeSee PNG team, supported by OOXii Global, was offering free eye tests in his village, he was first in line. In a touching twist, the Community Health Worker conducting his eye test was none other than Maggie, a former student of his. John was proud he had played a part in equipping Maggie with the tools and knowledge that now enable her to serve her community. He walked away from his consultation with EyeSee PNG with a pair of new prescription spectacles and a renewed sense of hope.

Thanks to Keriana for organising a great night, and to the judges for their time, guidance and support. OOXii won the Tech For Good Pitchnight!
