Recycle for Sight in May When Helen Keller named Lions “Knights of the Blind in this crusade against darkness,�? Lions responded by making it our mission to serve blind and vision-impaired people everywhere. Today, we’re still known for our sight services — eyeglass recycling in particular. May is Recycle for Sight Month, and we encourage your club to participate and raise awareness about eyeglass recycling in your community. Many people often wonder how Lions eyeglass recycling works. The video above features a vision mission trip to Puerto Vallarta, organized by the Fargo Lions Club, and does a great job of explaining how eyeglasses are collected, sorted and distributed. The process begins with a simple eyeglass collection box, and ends with hundreds of eyeglasses given to children and adults in need. How is your club participating in Recycle for Sight Month? To start a Recycle for Sight program in your community, see our list of Lions Eyeglass Recycling Centers, and download our Club Guide for Collecting Used Eyeglasses.

Thanks to Lions, he got the care he needed to improve his vision, see and read clearly, and look toward a happier, healthier future.

LQ: Lions Help Prevent Bullying The latest issue of Lions Quarterly features a segment about Lions programs that address a serious concern among today’s youth: bullying. As more and more young people use texting, email and social media as a form of communication, bullying goes even further than the school yard and can now follow kids wherever they go. The Lions Quest program provides resources that helps teachers open up a conversation about bullying in the classroom. The Leo Club program gets young people involved in community service activities, showing them the importance of helping others rather than hurting others. Watch the video to see how Lions are making an impact on today’s youth. How does your Lions club address issues such as bullying in your community?

Palmer’s Blog: Lions & Leos ROAR! Here’s a short video of me with Lions and Leos from District 412 showing our spirit! I always loving meeting new Lions who are so passionate and excited about serving their community, and it’s even better to see these Lions encouraging youth to get involved through Leo clubs. Because young Leos are the future of Lions! Be sure to engage the youth in your community by sponsoring a Leo club, inviting your children and grandchildren to family-friendly activities, and showing young people the importance of Lions service.

LQ: Lions Make Iceland Green The latest issue of the Lions Quarterly video magazine features Lions in Iceland who are addressing their country’s environmental concerns, such as soil erosion due to heavy deforestation. For decades, Lions have planted trees and grass in their communities — turning their “wounded�? coastlines into green landscapes once more. Other projects include environmental cleanup activities, which encourage families and youth in the community to join in the service. Green projects such as these are great ways to bring the community together and work toward a better future. Watch the video above to see how Lions are making Iceland green. What kinds of environmental projects does your club organize?

LQ: Lions Save Lives in Hawaii The beaches in Hawaii are beautiful, but strong currents can also make them dangerous — especially for visitors who are not aware that although the waters may seem calm, riptides beneath the surface can cause drowning. Lions in Hawaii joined a community-wide effort to make their beaches safer by setting up rescue tubes along the shore. These rescue tubes allow strong swimmers to help bring people who swim out too far back to safety. Watch the video above, a segment from the latest Lions Quarterly, to learn more.
