Sight First
Since 1990, SightFirst funds have enabled Lions Club International, health care providers, and partner organizations around the world to fight the major causes of preventable and reversible blindness and assist those who are blind or visually impaired. More than 488 million people have been impacted over the last 30 years. Millions more still need our help.
The Porterville Breakfast Lions organize SightFirst projects in partnership with local optometrists to help those in our own community get the eye care and glasses that they might not be able to afford otherwise. Since making the financial commitment to provide assistance in 2006, the club has helped numerous individuals get the medical care and attention that profoundly changes lives.

The Lions Recycle for Sight Program
The Porterville Breakfast Lions also coordinate the collection of eyeglasses with local health authorities, eye care professionals and other non-governmental organizations.
Refractive errors can be easily corrected with eyeglasses, yet millions living in low- and middle-income countries lack access to basic eye care services. Lions have recognized the urgent need for corrective lenses and collect usable glasses in their communities to support the Lions Recycle for Sight Program.
You can support the cause by dropping off used eyewear at any of our Lions-sponsored collection boxes throughout the community. Collection boxes can be found at the medical offices of Dr. Stover, Dr. Soursa, Dr. Steidley as well at the local Wal-Mart store and the Porterville Developmental Center.
