Rachel Miziolekk and Amelia Luschak
About their project
Rachel and Amelia decided to go for a more non-traditional donation item. They educated themselves on the global vision care crisis by collecting used glasses of any kind. They sent them to Onesight, a non-profit organization that travels to third world countries and provides eyecare exams for those who cannot afford them. Rachel and Amelia collected glasses to send to them that can be recycled and make money to create new glasses.
Their Goals
to educate everyone they could about the global vision crisis
collect at least 25 pairs of glasses
advertise and raise awareness on the lack of vision care in many countries
They went to their dance and skating clubs, talking to and sharing information with many people successfully. They collected about 30 pairs of glasses, exceeding their goals, and sending them off to the organization.
They both learned a lot about the importance of vision and managed to spread the word very easily.
