Our chapter collects eyeglasses for the Lions Club International Eyeglass Recycling Program. The used eyeglasses are then distributed to those in need by Lions volunteers or other organizations that support optical health in developing countries. Children's eyeglasses are especially needed. By donating your eyeglasses (and sunglasses too) you can help contribute towards Delta Gamma's Service for Sight philanthropy project.

Please bring any prescription or nonprescription eyeglasses and sunglasses to an event and a chapter officer will collect them and donate them to Lions Club International. For questions or to make a donation please contact info@phillydg.com.
