Don't Get Rid of Those Eclipse Glasses Just Yet

Astronomers Without Borders aims to help kids around the world safely view future eclipse events

August 21, 2017

Give your eclipse glasses a second chance! Astronomers Without Borders and its partners will be announcing a program to collect glasses after the eclipse, to be sent to schools in South America and Asia when eclipses cross those continents in 2019. Information on how you can participate in this program to spread STEM resources around the world will be coming soon so gather them up. Don't waste. Donate! 

Do not send the glasses directly to Astronomers Without Borders! Instead, they will be teaming up with corporate partners to make dropoff easy. Ask your employer to take part, or just stay tuned to their website for drop off info!
