Give the Gift of Sight!


I sent this out as an email a few months ago, but I think it bears repeating:


I just discovered something really neat. There is a charity called Give the Gift of Sight that will take your old prescription glasses and sunglasses, no matter how out of date, clean them, and send them to poor and developing countries like Ecuador and Honduras. They pair your prescription up with someone who has a similar one. They have already helped nearly 5 million people! You can help by dropping off your old glasses at Lens Crafters, Pearle Vision, Sears Optical, Sunglass Hut, or Target Optical. When you consider how blind most of us would be without our glasses, it's such a huge gift to give someone.


Something for all my four-eyed friends!
