(REDONDO BEACH, California)  April 22, 2016  --  Half a dozen club members traveled to Adams Middle School today to deliver eyeglasses to 45 students.  The activity was the culmination of the club's Vision-to-Learn project.
 
 

"I love it when a child puts on their glasses for the first time and says 'WOW!' and this child pictured below (left) is the youngster who said, "Wow.", said Nora Maclellan, coordinator of the project.  Another child was overheard to say, "I can read the sign on that far wall, wow!"
 


There are 11 more students who were examined last week and will be getting their glasses very soon!  That is 56 kids whose lives will be forever changed.  That's a total of 62 children who got free eye exams," she said.  As part of this project every student at Adams Middle School had their vision screened by the school nurse or by your fellow Rotarians - that was a total of 982 students!  Therefore, every child at Adams Middle School benefited from this project."

"Thank you for making the Rotary Community Service project involving Vision To Learn such a great success at Adams Middle School," she said.
