District 39W Eyeglass Recycling

The eyeglass recycling team membership:
    Lion Henry Cardinale (Boise Bench) - Team Leader
    Liz Cardinale
    Lion Stevie Packard (Boise Bench)
    Lion Laura Walls (Boise Capital)
    Lion John Walls (Boise Capital)
    Lion Mike McWhirter (Boise Bench)

Eyeglasses are sorted and packaged for shipment at the Idaho Commission for the Blind in Boise, ID.

BSU Nursing students received recycled sunglasses to distribute to migrant workers in Idaho.

Re-Specs an eyeglass frame recycling company pays Lions 39W for antique eyeglasses, eyeglass frames that are made of precious metals, and recyclable metal frames that are not in good enough condition to reuse (recycled for their scrap value).

The recycled eyeglasses are delivered to LensCrafters in Boise for shipment to Lions In Sight Foundation of California and Nevada in Vallejo, CA.

Lions In Sight Foundation of California and Nevada is a Lions redistribution center. They collect donations of eyeglasses from individuals, clubs, companies and organizations. The eyeglasses are cleaned and processed and then they are distributed to temporary and permanent clinics throughout the world.
