Entrepreneur and Award Winning Author Charles G Irion to Assist with Hundreds of Free Cataract Surgeries in the Philippines

Phoenix, AZ, February 06, 2015 --(PR.com)-- In February Charles G. Irion will be participating in a medical mission in Zambales, Philippines to provide free cataract surgeries to needy patients. This is the 11th cataract medical mission between the Philippines and Mexico. Historically, the Phil-Am Lion’s Club always breaks their record. In 2013, they helped 223 patients with vision screenings, leading a group of more than 10 volunteers. The process is tedious, having to sort through thousands of glasses so that patients are given a pair of free corrective glasses after the surgery. During their last mission over 9000 pair of glasses were dispensed! Irion personally will be working with doctors to scan and give eye tests before and after surgery. Project C.U.R.E. donated some of the medical supplies – Charles Irion is a Director of Project C.U.R.E.

Lion’s Club International was founded in 1917 by Melvin Jones from Arizona. It’s the largest service humanitarian club in the world with a membership of approximately 1.3 million. The current President of LCI, Joseph Preston is from Arizona as well.

Charles Irion is the author of The Summit Murder Mystery series which can be found at these retailers - iTunes, Amazon, Amazon kindle, Sony, The Book Depository, Barnes & Noble, Books on Board, KOBO. He’s also a philanthropist and has prestigious positions with Project C.U.R.E., The 3000 Club, and the Phil Am Lions Club.
