DONATE YOUR OLD EYEGLASSES

Do you have eyeglasses, sunglasses, reading glasses or frames at home that you don’t need anymore? Did you know that your old eyeglasses can change a life?  By giving sight to someone who is visually impaired you can help them gain employment, complete their schooling, care for themselves, and care for others. 

Please deposit your eyeglasses in the donation box in the rear of the church, and in the parish office. Your donations will be taken to one of the drop-off locations of Lions Club International, who distribute glasses to people in need throughout the world. Thank you for helping others!

DONA TUS ANTEOJOS USADOS

¿Tienes anteojos, gafas de sol, gafas para leer o aros en casa que ya no necesitas? ¿Sabías que tus anteojos usados pueden cambiar una vida? Al darle la vista a alguien con discapacidad visual puedes ayudarlo a conseguir un empleo, completar sus estudios, así como cuidar de sí mismo y de otros.

Encuentra la caja de donaciones en la parte trasera de la iglesia o en la oficina parroquial para tus donaciones de anteojos y gafas de sol. Tus donaciones se llevarán a uno de los lugares de entrega de ‘Lions Club International’, quienes los distribuyen a personas necesitadas en todo el mundo. ¡Gracias por tu participación!
