Hundreds of pair of glasses packaged up by the Renfrew Lions Club and ready for refurbishing
A generous donation from our community is on its way to help make vision clearer for people across the globe.
Renfrew Lions Club President James Johnston thanks everyone who dropped by last week’s open house event and those who stuck around to help pack just over 500 pairs of eyeglasses ahead of their trip to the Canadian Lions Eyeglass Recycling Centre in Calgary.
From there, the glasses will be refurbished and sent to people in need around the world.
If you would like to donate your own used pairs of glasses or hearing aids, speak to a local Lions Club member.
