CARPINTERIA, Calif., July 02, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Blue Planet Eyewear, a mission-driven, eco-fashion brand of classic and eclectic eyewear thoughtfully crafted to make a positive impact on the Earth, is proud to announce its new military discount. The eco-friendly company is offering 25 percent off online purchases for active military and veterans.
Blue Planet is a trend-setting eyewear company known for pushing the boundaries in the eco-fashion space. Each collection is carefully designed with recycled plastics as well as reclaimed and natural materials such as bamboo and wood. The company is committed to protecting eyes and improving sight while keeping the environment at the forefront of their material choices.
“We are excited to offer our new military discount and show appreciation to our brave service men and women,” said Lisa Lawenda, CEO of Blue Planet Eyewear. “We have strong company values that are based around helping others and giving back, so this is the perfect addition to our existing programs.”
In addition to the military discount, the company continues their philanthropic efforts through its Visualize Change program. Blue Planet Eyewear believes every person is entitled to the gift of sight, yet it's estimated that 285 million people—19 million children—are visually impaired worldwide. To date, Blue Planet Eyewear has donated over 600,000 pairs of glasses through this program, which donates one pair of corrective eyewear for every pair sold to national and international charities, like SEE International, Feed the Children, Direct Relief and Best Day Foundation.
With both the military discount and the Visualize Change program, Blue Planet exemplifies its core value of social responsibility, committed to making products that feel good, look good and do good a priority.
