Soles4Souls
Used Running Shoe Recollection
The Mission is simple: to impact as many lives as possible with the gift of
shoes. Soles4Souls facilitates the donations of shoes, which are used, to aid
those hurting worldwide. More than 300 million children around the world don¢t
own a single pair of shoes. A sad irony is that the same amount of footwear was
thrown into American landfills last year alone. It¢s something we all have, in
abundance, lying in our closets. Used running shoes are particularly valuable,
since most are still in great shape.
We will conduct a used running shoe recollection at the final January Freeze
Race, currently scheduled for Sat., 1/24, 10 AM @ Otseningo Park. Please bring
your used running shoes and help spread the word. A collection box will also be
permanently located at the Binghamton YMCA on Susquehanna St. Watch for future
Soles4Souls collections at upcoming local road races throughout the year.
Shoe must be tied together or rubber banded, if there are no laces.
