This Earth Day, let your old glasses see again! We're hosting a special Eyeglasses Donation Drive to give your gently-used glasses a second life.
In the spirit of Earth Day, we are hosting a collection drive from April 7th to April 18th.
These glasses are donated to the Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation, which works with doctors and church groups to distribute them overseas to people who don’t have access to eye care.
One pair of glasses could change someone’s life! Millions around the world lack access to basic eye care. Donating used prescription glasses, reading glasses, or even sunglasses can help someone regain clear sight — and keep perfectly usable materials out of landfills.

The 2025 Earth Day Drive ended with success: ~450 eyeglasses donated, 70 pounds of plastic and metal recycled, and $45,000 retail value saved.
We’re hosting a special World Sight Day Eyeglasses Donation Drive to give your gently-used glasses a second chance to change a life.
In recognition of World Sight Day, we will be collecting glasses from October 1st to October 15th.
All donated glasses will be provided to partners who help deliver vision support to underserved communities around the world. These organizations work with clinics, mission groups, and volunteers to ensure that glasses reach individuals who otherwise would have no access to eye care.
One pair of glasses can make a world of difference.
Millions of people live with treatable vision impairment simply because they cannot afford or access eyeglasses. By donating your used prescription glasses, reading glasses, or sunglasses, you’re helping someone regain clear vision, return to work or school, and improve their quality of life, all while keeping valuable materials out of landfills.
