The MD 13 International Relations Committee supports three important
organizations: Volunteer Optomitrists in Service to Humanity (VOSH),
Student VOSH (SVOSH), and Amigos de las Americas (Amigos).
The Lions of Ohio have contributed toward the purchase of an
autorefractor for VOSH, which was used on their trip to Peru. VOSH
distributed more than 6,000 pairs of donated eyeglasses on this trip.
Donations also helped support 17 optometry students in SVOSH's trip to
Hondouras where they served 1,700 patients in five days. Each student
first completed 50-60 hours service preparing donated eyeglasses.
Amigos has served 252 communities in Central and South America. These
young people help in building schools, health clinics, community
gardens, and sanitation projects, as well as other activities. It takes
approximately $4400 to send a youth on this summer program.
In 2002-2003 the International Relations Committee donated $2,463 to
VOSH; $12,316 to SVOSH; and $9,853 to Amigos.
