Please hand in your old glasses in the collection boxes at the university libraries in Zittau and Görlitz. Children and adults in developing countries will be delighted with your donation.
Give children and adults in developing countries the gift of full vision for learning and working with your old glasses.
By donating your glasses, you can put long-term unemployed people in Germany back to work sorting, cleaning, refurbishing, measuring, registering and preparing worn glasses for shipment to developing countries.
Make a contribution to waste avoidance and reuse of your glasses, whereby raw materials can be reused without the use of primary resources such as crude oil.
