Blown glass is a popular holiday gift, and customers are lining up at one Eugene outfit which sells it for a good cause. St.
Vincent de Paul creates blown glass designs in west Eugene at its Aurora glass foundry.
The money goes to charity. "All of the profits from this go back into community service programs that St Vincent de Paul is running so everything is identified with that," says Patti Lomont of St. Vincent de Paul.
The glass comes from recycled pane glass. The profits go to help the poor with affordable housing and job training programs.
