Helen from Paraparaumu

There seems to be yet another scam around. Got a call on my mobile purporting to be from PayPal about a sum being deducted. I don’t have a PayPal account! So beware especially if you do have one.

USED SPECTACLES PROJECT
In 1925 Helen Keller, a woman who had been blind and deaf since childhood, challenged Lions to become "Knights of the Blind" in a crusade against darkness. Lions accepted Helen’s challenge and there are now a number of programmes that Lions are involved with worldwide, particularly in third world countries.
If you have old spectacles lying around that you dont use they may be of use to others.

Useful items are labelled, packaged and passed on to Volunteer Ophthalmologist Services Overseas (VOSO) for distribution to those with poor eyesight in the Pacific Islands.

VOSO consists of teams of eye surgeons, optometrists and eye care workers who visit the isolated communities and bring enhancement to the lives of hundreds of people annually. The project has provided over 80,000 pairs of glasses which would have a replacement value in excess of $15 million

Can you help? If so please email Andrew at andthel@outlook.com

The Lions Club of Kapiti supporting the Lions motto. "We Serve."
