ANZEF’s annual grant rounds support initiatives that advance eye health equity and access for communities in Australia, Aotearoa New Zealand, and the Asia-Pacific region*.
The ANZEF Grant Round is made possible through the yearly support of RANZCO Fellows and the generous contributions from our donor community. We sincerely thank every donor for their role in ensuring the sustainability of this initiative, which is instrumental in shaping a brighter future for eye health.
