    I'm x posting this with Astronomy
    My Mom found this program and I thought I'd share.

    A lot of us got some viewing glasses for the solar eclipse and well, now what?

    A Call to Action

    Eclipse Glasses USA's donation program is more than just a charitable initiative. It's a movement that aims to bring people together,
    irrespective of geographical boundaries, under the vast canopy of
    the universe. It's about sharing, caring, and ensuring that the
    wonders of the cosmos are accessible to all, especially the curious
    minds of the future.

    If you have eclipse glasses lying around after a recent eclipse
    event, consider donating them. Ensure they are undamaged and in
    good condition. By doing so, you're not just getting rid of an item;
    you're passing on the torch of knowledge, wonder, and safe exploration
    to the next generation.

    Let's come together and make a difference. Let's ensure that the
    next time a child looks up at the sky during a solar eclipse, they
    do so with wonder in their eyes and safety in their hands, all thanks
    to a pair of glasses that traveled miles to reach them.

    Contact us at info@eclipse23.com for instructions on how to send
    them to us.

    Eclipse Give Back

    We are often asked what to do with used eclipse glasses after an
    eclipse. Eclipse Glasses USA works with other organizations to
    donate used but undamaged eclipse glasses to other countries with
    upcoming eclipse events.

    We only accept US-made paperboard glasses that have the manufacturer's
    address and contact info and that bear the ISO logo. All others will
    be discarded due to liability and quality issues.

    All shipments will be opened and inspected before being repackaged
    for outbound shipment. Damaged or unuseable glasses will be discarded.

    You can mail them to:

    Eclipse Glasses USA, LLC
    PO BOX 50571
    Provo, UT 84605
