Help our kids get back to school on the right foot!
"SOS" and Wardrobe Consulting are launching Back-2-School "ShoeMania" for our local struggling families. Distribution for the families in need will be held on Aug. 20th, 21st and 22nd here at our SOS facility in Raleigh, NC.
Through these hard economic times, parents are finding it hard to provide their children with all of the school supplies necessary to start the new year - not to mention a new pair of shoes for their always-growing feet! We have received multiple phone calls from families that are in need of a decent pair of shoes. This has touched the hearts of the staff at Share Our Shoes, and inspired up to launch this Shoe Drive!
Children ages 4 - 18 are welcome, and it doesn't matter if you're on traditional or year-round calendar.
We are going to be working with some large assistance programs, and boys and girls clubs, all the way from Durham Co. & Johnston Co.
We also have our Sanford area distribution that we are trying to reach out to. However, we need your help!
We are all prone to jump up and help when we turn on the TV and there is a natural disaster staring us in the face.....SOS would like to see the same kind of love given during our SHOEMANIA!! These familes are going through their own disaster - right here at home! It might even be your neighbor, and you do not even know it!! So, clean out your closets, host a back to school ShoeMania Shoedrive, or if you would like sponsor just one child and make a world of difference for them as they return to school.
We have distributed over 355,000 pairs of shoes to Haiti so far and will continue to send shoes to Haiti every month for the rest of the year, as part of their re-building process. Also, we have our facility on Capital Blvd. in Raleigh, NC. With your continued help we be able to have shoes for everyone in desperate need here in our community as well!
This year we have been able to put shoes on the feet of 10,000 men, women and children's feet here locally! Thank you to all who make this mission of sharing shoes possible, for so many! Please continue to spread the word about the need for shoes HERE and AROUND the world and we will continue to make it our mission to keep "Recycling Shoes" for those in need!
As a Shoe Charity it is our mission to provide shoes for those in desperate need!
Do you have shoes you do not wear?
Do they sit in your closet taking up space?
Donate them to someone in desperate need of shoes!
