The members of the Fredericktown Lions Club are proud to spend our time, talent and treasure on helping those in need in the following ways:

Eyeglass Collection - The Fredericktown Lions Club collects used eyeglasses in order to recycle them for use in developing countries where eyecare and access to glasses is extremely limited. We have collection boxes in a variety of places around town.

Why do we send the glasses to foreign countries and not give them to the needy in America? Because it is illegal in the US to give someone the prescription of someone else.

Charities and People We Support - Our club donates annually to a variety of good causes, including:

• Lions Pilot Dogs
• Diabetes Care & Research
• Lions Eye Research
• Central Ohio Lions Eyebank
• Ohio Lions Foundation
• Lions Clubs International Foundation
• Sight & Hearing projects
• Camp Echoing Hills
• Local families in need
• Many other great organizations.

Eye Exams & Glasses - We purchase numerous eye exams and eyeglasses each year for local citizens who cannot afford them.

Youth - We proudly sponsor a Boy Scout Troop and a LEO Club to give the youth of our community the opportunity to serve others.  We also sponsor the GOOD Program in our schools.
