The Lions’ eyeglass and hearing aid recycling program helps to provide vision and hearing assistance to those who may not otherwise have access to necessary aids
The Lions Clubs of Clark County are excited to announce the placement of a new eyeglasses and hearing aid recycling drop-off box at the Cascade Park Community Library. This initiative is part of the Lions’ ongoing efforts to collect and recycle used eyeglasses and hearing aids for individuals in need locally and worldwide.
The new drop-off box was delivered to Cascade Park Library Branch Manager Rachael Ries and is now conveniently located in the heart of the community. This library location was chosen as it serves as a community hub and supports the Lions Club’s mission of expanding its service by creating a new local Lions Club.
The Lions’ eyeglass and hearing aid recycling program helps to provide vision and hearing assistance to those who may not otherwise have access to necessary aids. Donated eyeglasses and hearing aids will be refurbished and distributed to those in need, allowing life-changing improvements in quality of life.
“We are proud to partner with the Cascade Park Community Library and offer this easy, accessible way for residents to give back by donating their used eyeglasses and hearing aids,” said Doug Ballou, Lions Club representative. “This is a meaningful step toward helping individuals in our community and beyond.”
