Sam's Club Gives the Gift of Sight
Thanks to Sam' Club, APS students are seeing the world a little differently.  Sam's Club provided eye examinations, lenses and frames to 25 APS students.

One fifth-grade student is thrilled with his new glasses.  "It makes a big difference in what I can see.  I know the glasses will help me do better in school," Ramon said.

APS nurse Darcy Miccio-Pace presented Sam's Club with a Community Partnership Award for their outstanding contributions to students.

"I know what it is like not to be able to see.  It is a special privilege to give back.  When I was young, a company provided me with glasses through a similar program."
-Sam's Optical Department manager Frederick Phillips
