The club maintains over 20 eyeglass collection sites throughout the Springfield-Franconia area. By donating your used eyeglasses you can help those in need see clearly, possibly for the first time in their lives. Please donate your used glasses. Eyeglass Recycling Center Club members sort, wash, and package used eyeglasses at the Eyeglass Recycling Center in Falls Church, VA on the 1st Monday of each month.
Lions clubs collect and distribute glasses throughout the world.
Glasses are provided to those in need free of charge to the individual. A pair of glasses may make the difference between someone being able to work or not, or a child being able to read or see the blackboard in school. For some, it means seeing clearly for the first time in their life. Need is determined by Fairfax County agencies who pass the requests onto the club. The club then ensures that the identified parties receive the much needed glasses or hearing aids.
