Through the Gift of Sight program, the Lions Club and Lenscrafters collect eyeglasses and sunglasses of all styles, sizes and colors for distribution in North America and abroad to those with vision problems.
To participate in the annual Sight Night drive by collecting glasses while trick-or-treating this Halloween, visit www.sightnight.org.
Or if you prefer, just drop off your eyeglasses and sunglasses at any Lenscrafters or Lions Club.
All that, and your gift may be tax deductible. Now go round up those old Gazelles for donation. Halloween is right around the corner!

This is great. I've got a few pair that I'm going to donate right away. Glad to know about it... Beronda
Also consider www.uniteforsight.org, another international nonprofit organization that collects used eyeglasses for distribution around the world. You can even start a local chapter in your school or office. --Karama
And thanks for stopping by, Beronda!
I just stopped by Lenscrafters and donated two pair of glasses from high school and college. It's so nice to have something positive to do with them rather than throw them in the trash.
Thank you very much for this info. I've been looking for a place to donate my old eyeglasses and was happy to hear that Lens Crafters accepts them b/c they have so many locations.
