Lions club achieve goal
EXETER - Lions Clubs Interna-
tional, the world's largest service
organization, has surpassed its
goal of raising at least U.S. $130
million for campaign Sightfirst.
Funds support projects to prevent
and cure blindness in this country
and around the world.
"Months before the end of the
campaign on June 29, Lions have
raised U.S. $ 130,335,734" said
Don Thompson, president of the
Exeter Lions Club. "But we're not
through yet. The more funds that
we raise, the more sight -restoring
projects we can implement, and
the closer we will come to the
Lion's ultimate objective of con-
quering needless blindness.
The Exeter Lions club has raised
a good portion of its $8,500 goal
through a variety of activities in-
cluding a mail campaign and the
August 6 baseball get -away -
weekend draw, to be held on Cana-
da Day.
"I am very proud of the way club
members and the community have
responded to the plight of people
who are threatened by blindness,"
Thompson said.
"It is so rewarding to know that
we in Exeter are playing a signifi-
cant part in the greatest sight con-
servation initiative in history. I
particularly want to thank Paul An-
stett, who has done a terrific job in
chairing our club's campaign
Sightfirst committee," he said.
Already, Lions have carried out
more than 2.5 million vision
screenings, provided more than
358,000 free cataract surgeries to
needy people, trained 1,100 eye
health professionals, and built 30
new eye hospitals. Project costs are
kept to a minimum thanks to the
contributed services of 1.4 million

Lions worldwide.
The World Health Organization,
with whom Lions work closely in
planning Sightfirst projects, esti-
mate that there are over 40 million
blind people today, 80 percent of
whom could have had their blind-
ness prevented or still could have it
reversed. WHO's prediction that
the number of blind would double
within a generation unless dramatic
action were taken, prompted Lions
to act.
Sight conservation and work with
the blind are firmly established tra-
ditions for Lions, dating back to
1925 when Helen Keller personally
challenged Lions to become
"Knights of the Blind in the Cru-
sade Against Darkness". Since then
Lions established the White Cane
as a symbol of independence in the
1930s, established the first Dog
Guide School in the United States
as well as the first Corneal Eye
Bank. Today, eye banks sponsored
by Lions account for nearly 25,000
cornea transplants per year.
Sightfirst grants have been
awarded in a total of 36 countries.
A national eye health education
program is being developed to call
attention to the dangers of Glauco-
