Going Green with The Home Depot

IPODS teamed up with The Home Depot in Athens, GA to learn ways to save money while helping to preserve the environment in our homes.

"Recycle for Sight"

Through the Lions Club International, one of our 2018-2022 International Program Corporate Sponsors, the IPO chapter will support their “Recycle for Sight” program and collect used eyeglasses that will be distributed to people in need in low and middle income communities where they will have the greatest global impact.

Please donate your eyeglasses that you no longer need or use. Also, ask your family members, co-workers and etc. for theirs as well. Acceptable eyeglass donations include prescription and reading glasses, sunglasses and plastic and metal frames. Children’s glasses are especially needed. Cases are also accepted.

"Soles for Souls"

Gently worn shoes will be collected at each meeting to support the Soles 4 Souls. This non-profit organization processes and ships shoes to destinations worldwide populated with people of color.
