At Lions BrightSight, we value forging strategic partnerships with organisations that are mutually beneficial in serving those in need, throughout the republic and neighbouring states.
Accordingly, we are very pleased to announce a synergistic collaboration with AutoZone Holdings (Pty) Ltd. Through our discussions, they have very generously come on board to assist in driving our Lions Used Frame Collection project through their National Dealership Network. Branded Collection Boxes will be distributed to all AutoZone retailers for acceptance of used spectacle frames. Knights of the Blind badges will be handed to every contributor of used frames.
Additionally, AutoZone has sponsored the purchase of a new PlusOptix Vision Screener for use by Lions Clubs. The vision screener is used to identify patients that require a professional eye test and possible refractive intervention. The extra PlusOptix unit will alleviate the pressure on our existing units used by Clubs and allow for more projects to take place simultaneously throughout our communities.
Lions BrightSight extends heartfelt gratitude to the incredible team at AutoZone for their exceptional generosity and genuine interest in the work we do. Our sincerest thanks go to the management and staff at AutoZone for their invaluable support!
Without the help of compassionate partners like AutoZone, many individuals in desperate need would continue to live with impaired vision that is, in many cases, easily correctable.
Together, we are helping to bring clearer sight — and brighter futures — to countless lives.
