1. POSITION VACANT: Senior Coordinator, Cure Blindness Project, New Delhi

2. ORGANIZATION BACKGROUND:

Founded in 1995, the Cure Blindness Project (CBP) is a global nonprofit organization driven to help people retain or regain their sight. Over 43 million people worldwide are blind, and 295 million suffer from vision impairment, with 90% living in low- and middle-income countries where access to eye care is limited. However, 80% of this burden is preventable or treatable, with simple interventions like cataract surgery restoring sight to millions.

For more than 25 years, CBP has worked to eliminate avoidable blindness by building cost-effective, high-quality eye care systems in underserved areas. In collaboration with partners in over 30 countries, the organization has performed more than 1.6 million sight-restoring surgeries, screened over 16.5 million people, and trained more than 20,100 eye health professionals, while also establishing 5 eye hospitals.

CBP offers a uniquely tangible impact model where funding directly translates into sight-restoring interventions and strengthened eye care systems. This makes it one of the most outcome-visible fundraising platforms in the social impact sector

As the organization expands to scale impact, CBP is seeking passionate leaders who are dedicated to making a difference, driving change, and fostering a positive team environment to help reach new heights in the fight against blindness.
