The Journey of Recycled Glasses

1. You donate your glasses at one of our donation locations. 
2. The glasses are sorted by the local Lions club and sent to the Texas Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center in Midland Texas where trained volunteers sort, clean and determine the prescription strengths of the glasses.
3. Volunteers at the recycling center carefully package the prepared glasses and store them until they are required for overseas eyeglass dispensing mission sites. Glasses that are not suitable for reuse are recycled for scrap, with the earnings benefiting local Lions and Leos projects. Each year, the Texas Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center supplies 60-80 missions sponsored by church groups, physicians and other organizations with used eyeglasses.
4. At the mission site, eye care professionals and trained Lion and Leo volunteers perform vision screenings and dispense the appropriate recycled glasses, free of charge, to children and adults in need.

► Tunes and Dunes - Lions strive to make an impact in the community by being advocates for the blind. The event aims to bring the blind/visually impaired and their families together, and encourages attendees to make meaningful connections through accessible adaptive fun activities that promote creativity and team work. Attendees will also enjoy a warm meal, beverages, door prizes, and fun in the sun. 

ENVIRONMENT                                               
► Lions Park Trash Pick-up - Our club made the decision to adopt the park for trash pick-up as part of the City of Corpus Christi's Adopt A Park Program in 2025. Every month our Lions meet to pick up trash or litter at Lions Park located at  McArdle Rd & Holmes Dr. 

HUNGER                                                         
► Nonprofit Food Cooking - Club utilizes a large smoke trailer and blackstone grill to cook food for local nonprofit events. These two grills combined allow the club to cook from 100 to 500 people. Our Yearly Feeding Calendar is below. 

YOUTH

► Lions Camp -  The Texas Lions Camp is a summer camping facility dedicated to serving children from the State of Texas with physical disabilities, Down's Syndrome, and Type 1 diabetes. The camp spans 500 acres of hills and woodlands in the beautiful Texas Hill Country near Kerrville. Programs at TLC offer campers, without charge, a chance to try new activities and create long-lasting friendships while developing greater self-esteem and independence. Our club sponsors children to attend camp.
