Who we are

Restoring vision, and dignity, one patient at a time

Zainab Memorial Welfare Society is a non-profit society working out of Aroti, Pirmahal. We provide free eye treatments and surgeries to people who would otherwise go blind from conditions that are entirely treatable.

Eye care is the core of everything

Screening, medicines, spectacles and surgery, funded end to end and followed up after discharge.

Every rupee is accounted for

Camp-by-camp costs are published for donors, including what was spent and how many patients it reached.

Our mission

Treatment should never depend on what a family earns

We exist to close the gap between people who need eye care and people who can pay for it. Everything we run is free at the point of use, and everything we spend is reported back to the donors who made it possible.

  • Free screening, treatment and surgery for every patient we accept
  • Camps held in the villages themselves, not only at district hospitals
  • Food, water and education support for the same households

Our vision

A district where nobody goes blind from a treatable condition

We are working towards a future where quality eye care reaches every village in our district, regardless of what a family can afford, and where preventable blindness is caught early rather than managed late.
