Helen Keller International

Helen Keller International is a US-based nonprofit organization that combats the causes and consequences of blindness and malnutrition by establishing programs based on evidence and research in vision, health, and nutrition. Founded in 1915 by Helen Keller and George A. Kessler, the organization's mission is to save the sight and lives of the most vulnerable and disadvantaged.
Helen Keller's three major areas of expertise are eye health, healthcare, and nutrition. Its eye health programs address the major causes of blindness in the world, including cataract, trachoma, and onchocerciasis, and treating refractive error.
