"In recent years, through your generous donations of gently used eyeglasses, frames and other items, we have been able to help the vision impaired see again through our Seeing Clearly program....Those glasses and other items were shipped to the Philippines, where Physicians for Peace volunteers scanned the glasses to determine their prescription strength, and then distributed them to needy patients as part of a comprehensive vision exam and vision care program."
Brigadier General Ron Sconyers (USAF, Ret.)
