1. Besides money, what else do you think Orbis needs Why
I think Orbis still needs more medical volunteers, such as doctors and nurses. When they go to poor areas, they need enough volunteers to perform operations. With more volunteers, they can help more patients regain their sight.
Think about the questions below. Share your answers with your classmates.
2. Would you like to volunteer for Orbis Why or why not
Yes, I’d love to volunteer! Dr Ma’s story in the interview really inspired me—he helps people in poor areas, and I want to be part of that too. Even small efforts, like translating for patients or sharing their stories online, can make a difference.
3. What can you do to help charities like Orbis
I can help charities like Orbis by telling my friends and family about their work, so more people can learn about them. I can also donate some money or join charity events to support their mission of helping people with different eye problems.
