SHOE DRIVE: Give your old shoes new life! Oct 16-20
Donate your old shoes at school during Waste Reduction Week, October 16 to 20.
- Shoes can be in any state of wear and must be tied or bound together with elastics.
- Students will receive an entry for a chance to win prizes with each shoe donation.
- With this shoe drive, our community will benefit directly as we rehome some shoes locally that are in excellent condition.
- The remaining shoes will be sent to Sole4Souls.
