Glasses for Haiti! The Fellowship of Christian Athletes will be sponsoring a used glasses drive for Haiti starting next week. It will run for 2 weeks from Nov 9th until Nov 20th. The first period that collects the most pairs of glasses before Nov. 20th will win a free breakfast on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break (Nov 24th). Any type of glasses can help. Reading Glasses, old prescription glasses, sun glasses, bi-focals, etc.. People in Haiti who need glasses do not have the ability purchase them, because they simply are not available. So students, please bring in any old pair of glasses that you or your family no longer use. Thanks!
