LINCOLN, Neb.—In late July, Santinelli International participated in the 2010 National Special Olympic Games held in Lincoln, Neb. by providing lens edging equipment for the Opening Eyes portion of the Healthy Athletes program, while several company associates volunteered their time and services. Through the program, a total of 564 pairs of prescription eyewear were distributed to athletes.
