PARSIPPANY — The GFWC Woman’s Club of Parsippany Troy Hills is continuing to collect used eyeglasses, hearing aids and jewelry to be donated to New Eyes for the Needy. To date the Club has collected 180 pair of eyeglasses and a box of jewelry to benefit the needy.
New eyes for the Needy is a not for profit organization founded in 1932 to improve the vision of the poor. New prescriptions eyeglasses are provided through a voucher program for Children and Adults in the United States who cannot afford glasses on their own. They operate primarily through volunteer efforts and are overseen by a Board of Trustees.
