Yes, there is sight at the
end of the tunnel.
On Wednesday, January
2, the Pelham Parkway
Neighborhood Association
made another delivery to the
Bronx Lions Club of close to
600 pair of used eyeglasses
collected from the generous
Pelham Parkway and Morris
Park community.
The glasses will be donated
to needy adults and
underprivileged children
in third world countries
throughout the world.
There is a tremendous
need for recycled eyeglasses.
The Lions Club International
will have them
cleaned, sterilized, the prescription
affi xed and then
package and ship them for
distribution to needy groups
and and adults and children
throughout the world.
The Lions Club is an organization
throughout the
world that empowers volunteers
to serve their communities,
meet humanitarian
needs, encourage peace and
promote international understanding

“When I fi rst met Bill
Gumbel, secretary of the
Bronx Lions Club, he was
very welcoming to the idea
of donating the eyeglass collection
boxes to my association,”
said Steven Glosser,
Pelham Parkway Neighborhood
Association vice president,
adding. “It’s great that
the PPNA is branching out
into more humanitarian
projects such as this. We look
forward to working more
with Bronx Lions Club in the
future. I check the collection
boxes every two weeks and
am fi nding a surprisingly
large amount every time.”
For this year’s insightful
project, Gumbel provided
Glosser with ten eyeglass collection
boxes which he strategically
placed throughout
the Pelham Parkway neighborhood.
He confi rmed him
that the humanitarian project
remains ongoing with no
end date in sight.
“The response was fantastic,”
he expressed. “This
is further proof of the big
hearts the giving people of
Pelham Parkway have.”
He further credited the
effort’s tremendous success
to the collection sites’ staff
members openly promoting
the cause to their many customers
and parishioners.
There are many times that
the participating businesses
call me to pick up the eyeglasses.
“I encourage other community
and civic organizations,
the Boy/Girl Scouts
to take part in this worthy
cause. All they have to do is
contact the Bronx Lions Club
through their website like I
did and they will gladly send
you the collection boxes,” he
added.
The Lions have 12 major
collection sites in the U.S.
The closest one to us is in
West Trenton, NJ.
The eyeglasses that were
collected by the PPNA for
this collection and another
600 pair that are currently in
their possession will be sent
to a sister club, the Yonkers
Millennium Lions Club, Bill
Gumbel said.
The Bronx Lions currently
have collection boxes
for used eyeglasses at 19 locations
within the borough.
The following businesses
and organizations have graciously
donated space for
the collection boxes: Bronx
House, 990 Pelham Parkway
South; Apple Bank, 626 Pelham
