Who We Are
The Northwest Lions Foundation for Sight & Hearing is an award-winning
501(c)(3) charitable organization focusing on providing sight and hearing care. Founded in 1969 as the Northwest Lions Eye Bank, the Foundation has grown beyond its original mission as a center of excellence for cornea donation to providing sight and hearing care to the residents of the Pacific Northwest and others in need throughout United States and the world.
We operate SightLife™, one of the leading eye banks in the world, and AUDIENT™, an innovative national program bringing high-quality hearing care to those with limited ability to pay. Locally, we also partner with Lions Clubs in Washington and Northern Idaho to help them accomplish sight and hearing missions in their own communities – one neighbor at a time.
