This organization accepts new and gently worn shoes to distribute worldwide to people in need of footwear.
- The definition of gently worn: a shoe that you would wear again, soles solid, shoes clean, laces (if applicable) included.
- All shoe sizes, styles accepted.
- You can specify what area you would like the shoes to go to.
- You can even send shoes that do not have mates! Apparently they hope that these shoes will find their sole-mate (sorry, couldn't resist!) but in my mind, I think of all the people I met in Ethiopia that only needed one shoe.
PlayGroup Details
- When: Saturday, March 13 10:00am-12:00pm
- Where: Jill's House (leave me a comment or FB me for directions)
- What to bring: Clean out your closets and bring new or gently worn shoes. Also bring an old shoe or two for our activity. $1-2 to help with shipping, if possible.
- Activity: Shoe planters!
- Snacks: Still in need of "shoe" snacks - be creative and bring us some toe-food
We will also be giving you info on another shoe-related cause that will help raise awareness. We will have the brochures/stickers for Tom's Shoes "One Day Without Shoes" which is scheduled for April 8th. 
Hope to see all you there!!

Looking forward to this one AND tonight at Wal-Mart they had 2 buggys full of children's shoes clearanced at $1.00!! Alot of them were toe strappy which to me aren't comfortable but after digging I found a few pairs of crock style shoes for a buck each! They had some cute Disney Princess shoes in there too!
