Members of the Baker City Lions Club met in February to sort and count hundreds of pairs of used eyeglasses, lenses and hearing aids to be dis- tributed to needy people throughout the world. About 700 pairs of glasses were collected from donation boxes located in businesses and offi ces throughout Baker City. They were counted and sorted by type, includ- ing prescription, reading, and sunglasses. A small number of separate lenses and hearing aids were also collected. The glasses and hear- ing aids were sent off for cleaning and restoration so they can be provided to low income people in the United States and other countries. Baker City Lions Club is a nonprofi t organization devoted to community service projects as well as sight and hearing at the state, national and interna- tional levels. The basis for successful relationships is simple: You turn to each other and you can heal, turn against each other and you damage. Getting to that “turning to” place is where it gets complicated and very personal. Using a rare mix of the author’s personal and professional experience, this book will show you how. “… an incredible, must-read book.
