About Cure Glaucoma Foundation
Cure Glaucoma Foundation (CGF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2014 by a group of ophthalmologists to make a global impact on glaucoma research and care. The organization funds translational research, runs fellowship and training programs for ophthalmologists from low‑resource settings, and organizes medical mission trips that deliver direct patient care and surgical training.
CGF operates donor‑facing programs including research grants, a Train‑the‑Trainer fellowship/observership program, and international medical mission trips. In recent years the foundation has continued outreach activities (mission trips and regional fundraising events) and maintains annual Form 990 filings and public financial summaries showing ongoing fundraising and program expenditures.
