The Fred Hollows Foundation

The Fred Hollows Foundation is inspired by the life and work of Professor Fred Hollows (1929 – 1993), an eye doctor, a skilled surgeon of international renown and an activist for social justice.

Fred Hollows championed the right of all people to high quality and affordable eye care.

We are an international development organisation collaborating with international partners to overcome avoidable blindness everywhere, and with organisations in Australia to realise the right of Indigenous Australians to good health.
