(If two or more groups are listed on a Saturday, those days are filled.)

Since July 2013, the Lions District 2-E2 Eyeglass Recycling Center has supplied recycled glasses to church and medical missions that traveled to Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Panama, Costa Rica, Brazil, Peru, Paraguay, Bolivia, Ethiopia, Uganda, Ghana, Malawi, Cameroon, Vietnam, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Romania, Fiji and the Philippines. Eyeglass recycling is done by volunteers from Lions clubs, Leos clubs, National Charity Leagues, 2nd Saturday, SASO, church groups, colleges, corporate volunteer groups, high school students, and anyone else willing to spend a few hours helping us.

You, Too Can Serve

Turning the boxes and bags of used eyeglasses into reusable glasses is easy. Learning to sort, wash, and read the prescriptions can be done quickly. There are tasks for every skill level and physical ability so everyone can be productive. Please get in touch with us to plan a workday for your club or group.

Contact your pastor, service organization, or doctor and let them know we have glasses available for missions on a first-come, first-served basis. Bring us your used laptops, cell phones, digital hearing aids, and eyeglasses! Use the Calendar tab to check availability and the Contact Us tab to request the date and time you want to work. Be sure to indicate the number of volunteers in your group. Shifts are either 9 AM to Noon or Noon to 3 PM on Saturdays. Arrangements can be made in advance for groups of 10 or more on a weekday. One adult must accompany youth volunteer(s) for every four youths.
