The Plaistow Lions Club is active in many local programs that benefit the community and the surrounding area. Listed here are some of the ways we volunteer our time and resources to help others.

Eyeglass Donations

The Plaistow Lions collects used eyeglasses throughout the year for processing at a regional Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center. Volunteers clean, sort by prescription strength and package the glasses. Most of the recycled glasses are distributed to people in developing countries where they will have the greatest impact. Drop off locations at :

Plaistow Post Office

Plaistow Town Hall

Plaistow Fish & Game Club

Dr. Vitale's Office - 161 Main St Plaistow, NH 03865

Vic Geary Center - 18 Greenough Rd Plaistow, NH 03865

Operation KidSight is a statewide vision screening program for children 6 months to 6 years of age. Most young children don’t get their vision screened until they have problems learning or paying attention in school. By then, it may already be too late. Unless vision problems are detected early and corrected, they risk becoming permanent by age 7. Our mission is to ensure eye screening and follow-up care is given to all kids because every child deserves to learn and see the world clearly.

Through a collaborative effort, the Plaistow Lion’s Club, the Plaistow Police Department, and SoRock Coalition for Healthy Youth have been able to provide a Prescription Drug Drop Off Box for use by the community This box is currently located in the lobby of the Plaistow Police Department (see photos attached). This project was spearheaded by King Lion Roy Walling III. This box is meant to help with the opioid crisis that is facing our State and the nation. The box will provide the opportunity to get unused prescription drugs out of resident’s homes so they can be destroyed and will not fall into the wrong hands.PRESS RELEASE
