Are magnifying glasses ok as well? I have I pair I don’t need and would love to donate them if they would be used. If not, I still support this drive, and the whole Save Blood Ties campaign. We need this show back NOW!!!

Glasses damaged beyond repair are not accepted Stephanie. However, if they are usable, send them on in.
Stacy, the instructions I received from Lions Club gave the listings of where to mail the glasses. You would need to check with your local Lion’s about donating them there. For us to get credit, I do need the online form completed regardless of where you send the glasses
