Eyeglasses Donations

If you have used eyeglasses you no longer need, you can donate them at the library.  The Lions Club accepts prescription and reading glasses, sunglasses and plastic and metal frames.  Children's glasses are especially needed. Most of the recycled glasses are distributed to people in need in developing countries where they will have the greatest impact.
