Reston Lions Participates in Eyeglass Recycling

As you may know, Lions are "Knights of the Blind" but did you know we also help those with other visual impairments?  The Reston Lions Club collected 1000 pairs of eyeglasses from over a dozen locations locally and recently took a group of Lion volunteers to the NOVA Eyeglass Recycling Center where these glasses will be processed, marked, and sorted by prescription to be sent to those in need.  More information about eyeglass recycling at http://www.lionsclubs.org/EN/our-work/sight-programs/eyeglass-recycling/index.php or our site at http://restonlions.org/eyeglass/eyeglass_collection.htm
Thanks to our volunteers and to all who have donated their old eyeglasses to the worthy cause of providing the less-fortunate with the gift of Sight!
