Nigeria 2024. 415 fewer blind people.

Although they all look the same, each expedition is a new challenge. New equipment, new patients, new volunteers…. Preparing everything with precision so that nothing goes wrong is essential and, if something goes wrong, knowing how to fix it is also essential.

Nigeria always welcomes us with open arms. The GB Foods team always prepares the ground for us to arrive and operate as quickly and comfortably as possible.

As Sonia, one of our field volunteers on this expedition, says, ‘It has been an incredible experience:

It has been an incredible experience. I met a team that I didn’t know and everything was new to me. I was full of excitement but also a little uncertain about what I was going to find. They made it so easy for me and I was immediately focused on a single purpose: to help as much as possible and to add to the team. Despite some moments of hardship, seeing the gratitude of the people made it all even more worthwhile. The key words were THANK YOU. It won’t be my last expedition. Counting the time for the next one.
