WHY SHOULD YOU DONATE USED GLASSES AND HEARING AIDS? 

Throughout the year, we collect used eyeglasses (hearing aids will be donated to a different location) and deliver them to regional Lions Eyeglass Recycling Centers (LERCs). These volunteers will give the glasses new life by cleaning, sorting by prescription strength, and then package the glasses. Recycled glasses are then distributed to people in need in low and middle income communities where they will have the greatest impact.
