This Friday (March 5) we’ll be welcoming Soles4Souls to our offices as they stop by to visit and pick up some donated shoes in their traveling RV.
Soles4Souls is a Nashville-based charity that collects shoes from the warehouses of footwear companies and the closets of people like you. The charity distributes these shoes free of charge to people in need, regardless of race, religion, class, or any other criteria. Since 2005, Soles4Souls has given away over 7 million pairs of new and gently worn shoes (currently donating one pair every 9 seconds.) The shoes have been distributed to people in over 125 countries, including Kenya, Thailand, Nepal and the United States.
We regularly hold “recycle your shoes” events to aid Soles4Souls, and this week we’re encouraging all our employees to bring in gently worn shoes for donation.
And we’ll post pictures of the event on Friday!
You can find out more information on Soles4Souls on their website and follow their roving RV across the country on their blog.
