The Gift of Sight for the people of Fiji

FiftyX has had the privilege of working with the Beeve Foundation for World Eye & Health for a number of years, and our President Ron Morris has served on their board of directors for over two years.

We are all so excited as preparations are underway for the 24th medical mission to Fiji to provide free eye care and eye surgery.

Pictured here are the foundation founders, Jerold and Dorothy Beeve in their home. They converted their entertainment center room into a storage and package prep room for all the items for the medical mission. Last year along, the medical team performed over 147 eye surgeries and dispensed 811 pairs of prescription eyeglasses! There are a lot of supplies to get ready.

This year’s mission will take place on August 15 -28. They will be again at the Nadi Public Hospital in Nadi, Fiji. “We are really excited because it makes it easier for the people of Fiji to travel to us, and the Nadi facilities are a huge improvement over previous facilities we have used in the past,” said Dr. Beeve. “This will be our biggest medical mission ever!” added Dorothy Beeve.

Many thanks to all the great supporters and volunteer staff. None of this would be happening without you.

May 1, 2014:  FiftyX has again been chosen as the Agency of Record for the Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension (LAFPP), and we’re thrilled! We’ve been working with the LAFPP for a year now, and have learned so much more about what the police and firefighters do in our community. It’s very rewarding to be selected to continue our work with them.

Being the Agency of Record means that FiftyX does all the graphic communications for the LAFPP, including newsletters, annual reports, seminar materials, benefits information packages, etc. These are the kind of projects we excel at, and it’s very rewarding to be selected to continue working with them.

Ron Morris, our president and creative director, said, ”We really appreciate the work of the police and firefighters and we’re honored that we can contribute back in this way to their wellbeing.

Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension (LAFPP) is a City department solely dedicated to administering the defined benefit retirement plan for all sworn (fire, police and certain port police) employees of the City of Los Angeles. The LAFPP has been providing retirement benefits to eligible members and their beneficiaries since June 7, 1899. Their website is at http://www.lafpp.com.

The Beeve Foundation

April 28, 2014 - We are thrilled to announce that our president and creative director, Ron Morris, was named to the Board of Directors of The Beeve Foundation for World Eye and Health, Inc. He will be serving a 2-year term.

Ron is really enthusiastic about the mission of The Beeve Foundation. He said, “I was very impressed by what they are doing and their passion, and I wanted to contribute more. With my background in marketing for health care organizations, it was a natural fit.”

FiftyX started doing design projects for The Beeve Foundation over a year ago. Through our work of designing and preparing content for brochures and newsletters, we’ve all learned a lot about their charitable medical operations for the disadvantaged people in Fiji, and have come to really respect this organization.

The Beeve Foundation for World Eye & Health, Inc. is located in Verdugo City, California and was founded in 1991 by Jerold Beeve, M.D., F.A.C.S. and Dorothy Beeve, R.N. Once a year, the Foundation sends an all-volunteer medical team of surgeons, doctors, nurses and technicians from Australia, Fiji, New Zealand and the United States to the Fijian Islands to perform various vision procedures, from testing and dispensing glasses to cataract surgeries and corneal transplants. The Beeve Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. More information can be obtained at http://www.fijiforsight.org or by calling (818) 790-8101.
