Last week, I gave you some good news: we’ve been able to help more people than ever this year, despite all the hassles with the pandemic.
But I still feel a bit frustrated, because we could be helping so many more!
Many of our new clients are those who need assistance with their hearing, and that’s great — but I know there are a lot of folks who have serious issues with their vision — and when they find out that they need surgery, they just don’t know where to turn.
Often, they get this news via their local optometrist, who tells them they have a problem that can’t be corrected with glasses. So we’ve created the information sheet you see below to distribute to optometrists’ and ophthalmologists’ offices, telling them how to connect their patients with us.
That’s where you come in. We’re hoping to get these information sheets into as many offices as possible. How about taking one with you the next time you get new glasses? Or if you belong to a Lions Club, get your members to distribute these to optometrists in your area.
If you click here, it will take you to a PDF you can download and print — or you can contact our Outreach Coordinator, Kerstin Brucki, at kbrucki@lshf.org, and she’ll send you as many as you can share.
There are numerous ways to change the lives of people in your communities — here’s another one!
