Local donations for Orbis’ global sight-saving mission have remained steady even though Macau is going through an economic slowdown, Orbis Macau’s Director of Development Vivian Lo Pou San said at the weekend.
Lo made the comment while speaking to reporters on Saturday during the opening of the local Orbis branch’s ‘Darkness To Go’ month-long campaign at Joy’s Salon in Nape.
According to Lo, the local branch raised about 17 million patacas last year and looking at this year’s situation so far, the amount of donations was more or less the same.
