Help the Gift of Sight Foundation recycle used eyewear for people in need around the world. This Halloween, the National Junior Honor Society is asking the St. Jude students to collect used eyewear and sunglasses during trick-or-treat night, October 31st. Volunteers from the Gift of Sight Foundation and the Lions Club International clean, repair, and classify the prescriptions and then hand deliver them to people in developing countries. Complete pairs of prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses of all shapes and sizes for all ages are suitable to donate. There will be a collection box in each homeroom. Please turn in all eyewear by Friday, November 3. NJHS suggests that you give your neighbors time to find their used glasses by placing door hangers on neighbors' doors on the weekend of October 27.
