Debbie can you tell me how you were able to distribute the glasses ? I am a Lions Club member in Alaska. There is no local Leones club in Zihua. We focus on helping the vision impaired.

I was referred to a Rotary Club member in Zihua who then referred me to the Red Cross here.

I expect to obtain maybe 50 to 100 pairs of used but refurbished glasses to bring down in early March. Hoping I won't have an issue here with customs.

Any advice that you can give on how I can get the most benefit down here would be most appreciated. Gracias. John

Hi Casa Juan,

I did not bring as many as you plan. I put half in a friend's suitcase. If one of us got the dreaded red light, we were going to say we were going to say we are always losing or breaking our glasses.

Debbie/Rob,
So we can bring used prescription glass down and you will find a home for them? Where would we drop them off at? My wife has several old pair that are in need of a home, we will be there first 10 days of March. I will start a collection box at work. Kurt

My saint of a wife, Lupita, gladly accepts donations at her boutique, and she will find deserving recipients for all donations.
