Rwanda, Congo and Burundi 

Eye Love Africa (ELA) is a project under Serge Global, a 501c3 U.S. non-profit mission agency. ELA was founded by Dr. John Cropsey, a missionary ophthalmologist with over 15 years of experience in East Africa (Kenya, Burundi, and now Rwanda).

Eye Love Africa seeks to eradicate needless blindness in the Great Lakes region of Africa (Congo, Burundi, Rwanda) and empower African eye care providers to be the hands and feet of Jesus to the blind through training, mentoring, and equipping.
