June 27, 2023Lions Eye Bank of the Northeast 75th Anniversary

It all began with a presentation by Helen Keller, about how important it was to give people the chance to see and hear the world around them. The Lions have been making it happen ever since, and recent consolidations are positioning this venerable organization to better serve constituents across the Northeast and obtain the resources to get the job done. Tim and Pete were given a tour, and saw the operation first hand, including the harvested eye material from recent donors. The Lions have a big presence in both Putnam and Dutchess counties, including the hospital where my brothers were born.
All 2023 ribbon cuttings of the Capital Region Chamber and its affiliates are sponsored by the Saratoga National Bank & Trust Company. Photos courtesy of the Lions Eye Bank of the Northeast.
