Sunglasses for Ethiopian Eye Surgery Patients |
| from Len |
Hi All, I have sent off to Julie Tyers today 124 pairs of non prescribed sunglasses in 3 boxes. I am happy to cover the cost unless our Treasurer wants me to handle it for the books in some other way. We may get more non prescribed sunglasses and it would be good to get to 200. Bruce is going to work on his retirement village, Mordialloc RC are sending out a request, and I am attempting to canvass some former colleagues. Still we could get some from Bruce’s favourite Bus Company. Is someone able to canvas central post offices, Lost and Found offices at Police Stations or stations ? There’s a Go! What do you reckon? And thanks to our members who donated 17 of the glasses. Fareshare with 700 volunteers made a terrific effort with 107. Cheers |
To read thank you from Julie Tyers
Dear Len , You are amazing and thankyou to everyone for their persistence, and congratulations on the fantastic outcome. I am very happy to receive the donated sunglasses. We will have two surgeons for our next campaign and aim to restore sight to 400 people suffering preventable blindness with cataracts. They will be very appreciated to receive these sunglasses after their surgery. You can post them to Julie Tyers OAM |
