Dear Finance & Administration Staff,
We are excited to launch the second annual Eyeglass Collection in partnership with Caitlyn’s Vision, a remarkable local organization that refurbishes eyeglasses for those in need while also raising awareness about children’s eye health and safety.
See the Importance
Vision problems affect millions of people who cannot afford proper eyecare. Your out-of-use, donated glasses could help a child succeed in school, an adult find employment, or a senior maintain their independence.
We are Collecting
- Used eyeglasses (prescription and non–prescription)
- Eyeglass frames
- Eyeglass cases
- Reading glasses

Ready to do more?
In addition to the eyeglasses drive, we would also like to bring your attention to the on-campus food pantry. Due to the high demand at the start of the new academic year, the pantry shelves are in urgent need of restocking, as the pantry relies on community support to help address food insecurity for our students and staff. While we plan to hold our annual Adopt-A-Week drive during Valentine’s Day 2026, we hope you will consider bringing a donation to the food pantry in the meantime.
