Halloween Night is "Sight Night' for the Gift of Sight Foundation. Each year on Sight Night, "ghouls" and boys collect used eyewear during trick-or-treat. All the eyewear collected on Sight Night is then cleaned, repaired and hand-delivered to underprivileged people in developing countries who couldn't otherwise afford them.
This is the tenth annual Sight Night. Since the program began in 1999, more than 1,000,000 pair of eyewear have been collected -- enough to help approximately 30,000 people on 30 separate missions! In 2008, we have 20 International missions planned and will need to recycle 1.2 million pair of used eyewear to make these missions a success. Your participation in Sight Night will help us achieve our goal.
