Where to Donate Old Eyeglasses

[Nipper]

Is there any place near here that wants eyeglasses. I'm about ready to throw out half a dozen pairs, but would rather donate them. Is there a Lions Club that collects them?

Please contact one of the Lions' clubs here in The Villages:
https://directory.lionsclubs.org/?language=EN

They conduct a variety of 'Sigh Programs':
Lions Clubs Sight Programs - Prevent Blindness, Recycle Eyeglasses (http://www.lionsclubs.org/EN/how-we-serve/health/sight/index.php)
Eyeglass Recycling - Lions Clubs (http://www.lionsclubs.org/EN/how-we-serve/health/sight/eyeglass-recycling.php)

There are boxes in the regional rec centers

Publix used to have a box out front for them that was sponsored by the Lion's Club. You might check there too.

There's bos at the Publix Pharmacy in Colony, and a larger box in the vestibule of the post office in Fruitland Park.
