Many Special Thanks To the Following:

This project was made possible thanks to the passion and support of some key partners. At this time we would like to thank Fundacao Altino Ventura and specifically Liana Ventura and Roberta Ventura. They have taken care of all the initial phases of the projects, providing doctors, volunteers supporting with meals, hotel accommodations, and welcoming the team- making us feel at home.

Carl Zeiss supported providing all the manufacturing equipment and lenses. In particular we would like to thank: Doug Crickey, Bryan Bauer and Latoya Greeve from the US team and Marcelo D’Anna and Segio Maranao from the Brazilian team.

Luxottica and Oakley Brazil have provided optical frames and sunglasses and Oakley T-shirts and hats as give aways for the children. In particular we would like to thank Carlos Guiherme, Luca Dalla Zanna and Salvador Parisi for their support and generosity.
