This March, we were so proud to partner with the fantastic team at @peepers to help patrons at the Boston Public Library’s Grove Hall Branch (@BPLGroveHall / @BostonPublicLibrary) see their favorite stories a little clearer for #NationalReadingMonth.

Peepers generously donated 100 pairs of reading glasses in the most common powers, while The Vision Council Foundation designed special commemorative bookmarks just for National Reading Month! 🔖

The Grove Hall Branch has made these reading glasses available on loan through The Giving Cupboard, a wonderful initiative offering donated items for patrons to take home or use within the library. If patrons are happy with the glasses, there are additional pairs available for them to keep and take home! 💖

We are so grateful for the opportunity to support the Boston community and the vital work of public libraries. A massive thank you to Peepers for their incredible contribution to vision health and access! Read more about our collaboration here with the link in our bio.
