VISION AND HEARING
We serve to prevent avoidable blindness and improve quality of life for people who are blind and visually impaired. The Lions Club of Turramurra Inc collects eyeglasses and hearing aids for distribution around the community and in Sri Lanka. We conduct eye and ear screenings for free in the Lions Mobile Sight and Hearing Van and partner with local eye doctors to provide low cost eye exams, eyeglasses, and even surgeries to eligible residents. Our club is unique in that about half of our members are visually impaired, which gives us insight into the needs of this population.
ENVIRONMENT
The Lions Club of Turramurra Inc is passionate about recycling! From bottle caps and pull tabs, to egg cartons, to eyeglasses and grocery bags, we care about our environment. Our club also runs 4th Grade Foresters where we provide trees for 4th grade students to plant. We serve to sustainably protect and restore our environment to improve the well-being of all communities. We’ve seen how our stewardship of natural resources can improve quality of life and increase engagement in Hampton Roads. We will continue to work for the health of our planet.
Waste Tracker
We at the Lions Club of Turramura, have started to measure domestic waste on a weekly basis. If you are a member of our community and would like to join hands with us to reduce household waste please use our tracker to keep track of your domestic waste.
Help make a difference in our environment every day !
