FICCI Eye Camp held in Dagupan on April 10, 2010.
One of the more well known projects of the Chamber is the "Eye Camp," which has been a successful endeavor of the FICCI for some years.
Providing free eyeglasses and eye checkups to constituents who cannot afford eye care, is our way of making their lives a little more... comfortable and giving them opportunity to live their daily life without the discomfort of not being able to see properly.
