See the world differently campaign – CCSB

Carol Thompson

Community Church at SaddleBrooke (CCSB) members joined forces with Unit 49 residents to donate their old glasses, sunglasses and cases for a worthwhile cause.

This event, sponsored by the Mexican Rotary, will provide eyewear to the Mexican people—especially those working in the fields needing sun protection for their eyes.

VOSH (Volunteer Optometric Services to Humanity) will be traveling on a mission trip this coming winter. They are going to the Hermosillo area to distribute CCSB’s collection: 222 eyeglasses and 144 cases.

Last year VOSH saw 2,200 people and dispensed 800 pair of glasses in four days! Everyone was also checked for eye diseases.

What a great recycling effort to find their old eyewear a good home.

The Community Church at SaddleBrooke meets every Sunday morning at 8:30 a.m. in the SaddleBrooke DesertView Theatre. We are an all denominational Christian Church and all are welcome.
