Everett: Donate eyeglasses at Tips hockey games
Members of Everett Lions clubs plan to collect used eyeglasses at two Silvertips Hockey games as part of the Lions Score for Sight campaign.
The Lions each year send thousands of pairs of used eyeglasses to the Lions Eyeglass Recycling Center in Lacey for sorting and grading. The glasses are given to people around the world who can’t afford glasses.
Donations of the used eyeglasses and money for the Lions Sight and Hearing Foundation of Snohomish County are set to be collected at the Dec. 29 and Jan. 4 games at Comcast Arena, 2000 Hewitt Ave.
