Your trash can help someone see

Your recycled goods can help improve someone's vision.


The Benoni Lakes Lions Club encourages community members to drop off their electronic waste (computers, printers, cables, kettles, microwaves, etc.) for their Recycle for Sight initiative, Benoni City Times reports.

The items can be dropped off at the recycling centre at Lakeside Mall’s Entrance Five.
