SIGHTFIRST II REPORT

TO: MD-2 COUNCIL CHAIRMAN,                        FROM: MULTI-NATIONAL
MD-2 GOVERNORS,                                               SIGHTFIRST II COORD. STATE
MD-2 VICE DISTRICT GOVERNORS,                   OF TEXAS

90 MILLION RAISED 

Congratulations to those Districts and clubs who have helped achieved the above milestone. A couple of reasons, first 90 Million equals sight for 15 Million folk who otherwise would be unsighted, and the Association Sightfirst leaders have met President’s Ross challenge to raise a minimum of 90 million by the 90^th convention.

However I would ask that you take a closer look at MD-2’s contribution before you become too excited. Some of you are blowing the socks of the overall goal of MD-2, unfortunately as one reads down the list, the numbers aren’t impressive after a few districts. Don’t get me wrong for every dollar raised is appreciated and needed however the load is much lighter when we all shoulder the responsibility of this Lion’s program:

Complete Report with statistics.

Again I thank each of you and your efforts; however there is a ton of work to do. I ask each of you to ensure that every Lion in Texas has the opportunity to be a part of this noble effort. Our new year brings challenges as they should. We have only thirteen months to achieve the mission of raising 200 million. That additional million as you are aware will bring funding for needed research and development.

Again thanks for all you do not just for Campaign Sightfirst II but all your endeavors to make this a better world for the unsighted and less fortunate. 

IN LIONISM

I am pleased to announce that CSFII has raised a total of US$74,840,533 toward our minimum goal of US$150 million. You have personally been responsible for helping to raise US$17,232.00. Attached, please find detailed information regarding funds raised in your district as of March 27, 2007. You will be receiving this information monthly, and I encourage you to use this information to motivate all groups and clubs in your district to further success.

Much has been accomplished, but much work remains for us to reach our minimum goal of US$150 million. As Knights of the Blind, we must take this opportunity to raise funds that will help prevent blindness and change the world for the better.

Yours in Lionism,
Dr. Tae-Sup Lee
