USED SPECTACLES AND KAN TABS PROJECT
KAN TABS for KIDNEY KIDS PROJECT
This Lions Club Project helps children with chronic kidney disease
By collecting aluminium kan tabs (Off drink Cans) and the screw caps off the wine bottles which are then “melted” down we can raise funds for this project.

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
