When we think of heroes, we often think of strong, brave people. But anyone can be a hero. A hero is someone who helps another person in the difficulties or danger. Fred Hollows was such a person.

Fred Hollows was born in New Zealand and became an eye doctor. He believed that all people, rich and poor, should have good medical treatment. After he began working as an eye doctor in Australia, he learned that many Aboriginal(土著的) Australians had eye disease because of dirty environment and bad health. He set up a program to help people take care of their eyes. Because of his work, many Aboriginal people could see again and fewer Aboriginal people became blind. Later, Fred Hollows learned blindness was also a big problem in Africa. Many people in Africa needed small eye Surgical operation(外科手术) to cure(治愈) their blindness. The cost of this surgery was only twenty-five dollars. But that is a lot of money to a poor person in Africa. There were also no doctors to help. Fred Hollows wanted to help the people in Africa. But he couldn't go to Africa because he had become sick. So he started the Fred Hollows Foundation. This foundation collected donations from people in rich countries. This money provided equipment for eye surgeries and helped to train doctors. The foundation helped thousands of people to see again. Unfortunately, Fred Hollows died before the foundation began its wonderful work in Africa and then other countries. Now the foundation helps save the eyesight(视力) of poor people all over the world. Even after his death, Fred Hollows is still helping people. He is a true hero.
