The Gift of Sight is a unique collection of gifts you can give to your friends or family while also supporting our sight-restoring work in the Pacific.

While all orders will go towards our work ending avoidable blindness and vision impairment in the Pacific, merchandise that includes GST cannot be claimed for a tax rebate.

Any donation items you have ordered, for example our cards and e-cards that do not include GST, are tax deductible. Any donations of $5 or more may be eligible for a donation tax. Learn more.

All Gift of Sight purchases will help support the work of The Fred Hollows Foundation NZ.

However, only items that do not include GST, for example cards, e-cards, and donations, can be used for donation tax rebate claims.

Your Gift of Sight orders will go towards our work ending avoidable blindness and vision impairment in the Pacific. This includes eye operations and treatments, training surgeons and eye health workers, and setting up sustainable eye health systems.

For every $1 donated, 76% goes directly towards eye health programmes and public education and 24% is necessary for admin, communication and fundraising costs which allows us to help even more people.

Any purchase of a e-card, card, or donation will be generously matched by Specsavers, meaning your gift will have double the impact. $25 becomes $50. One sight-saving surgery becomes two.

Specsavers will match all donations up to $20,000.
