through education, research, and health care. For example, a disease
spread distributed
by insects blinded 10% of the people in a part of Ghana, but in
the 1950s, his organization distributed a drug that nearly eliminated
the disease by 1960. In addition, it helped reduce the number of blind
children by giving out vitamins and also by performing over three million
eye operations. As a result, millions of people who were in danger of
becoming blind have been treated, and blindness is less common there
now.
