Used Eyeglasses Collection

The Chambersburg Evening Lions actively collects used eyeglasses which are then sorted and delivered to a regional Lions Eyeglasses Recycling Centeer. That facility handles over 1 million donated eyeglases each year. All types of eyeglasses and sunglasses, strong and weak prescription and non-prescription, are neutralized then analyzed for Rx strength, packaged and sent for disribution to needy groups and individuials around the world.

To provide broader access for those in our area wishing to donate, the Chambersburg Evening Lions Club maintains three 24/7 outdoor collection boxes for eyeglasses at:
