Star Light, Star Bright Imagine you've never seen a star twinkling at night Or the world around you that shines so bright Imagine being born without sight And the struggles and challenges of life in this plight But somewhere there is HOPE Across oceans, on the other side of the world There is HOPE
Mason Lopes, born Sept. 9, 2010, was born blind, because his optic nerves(the bridge between the brain and the eye) did not fully develop during his womb time. American doctors tell you there is nothing you can do, it is what it is. But, in China they have a different idea. Something can be done, and is being done. Stem cell treatments. Not only is this helping these beautiful children regain some vision, but also helping their overall brain development and confidence soar.
The cost of the treatment is $30,000. We would like to bring Mason by the time he is 5 years old. This is where our Mission for Vision begins for baby Mason. We will be doing lots of fundraising to raise the money, or you can make a donation!
El Toro Bright Side : One step towards giving Mason the gift of sight
Each member of El Toro High School's Bright Side club has created a canister where them and their friends can put all their spare change, to raise money towards Mason's Mission for Vision! Amazing kids :)
