Soles 4 Souls
I picked up a handful of magazines yesterday in preparation of Sunday football. Amongst the ones I bought was Boho Magazine ( a new Eco friendly fashion mag). It was loaded with green information along with adorable, earth friendly clothes and accessories. Pick it up if you get the chance. Anyway, in that issue I read about a charity called Soles 4 Souls that provided shoes to the victims of the Tsunami and Hurricane Katrina, Which is a hugely wonderful idea, so I goggled the website to see if there was anything a girl with a vast shoe collection could do.
Here are my (or our options):
Donate Cash
Donations will enable them to continue to acquire and distribute thousands of pairs of desperately needed footwear every week.
Donate as a gift or in memory of…
Honor someone you love with a tribute or memorial donation to Soles4Souls.
Sponsor Shoes for Those in Need
Purchase shoes for someone in need around the world.
Host a Fundraising Event
Throw a party to raise funds for Soles4Souls. Have guests bring $5 and a pair of shoes as entry to your party or put together a 5K walk for your neighborhood or business.
Donate New or “Gently Worn” Footwear
Send them your shoes! Ship new or gently worn shoes to one of the warehouse facilities or drop them off at one of the participation locations.
Host a Shoe Drive
You can help sponsor a shoe drive by volunteering to collect and package shoes from your area.
I’m thinking a shoe drive could easily coincide with our next clothing swap. What do you think?
