Wearing Out Poverty One Pair At A Time
By: Hannah Davis of Loretto High School
Cleaning out your closet? Have too many shoes? 
Donate your unwanted or unused shoes to the Soles 4 Souls organization!
Soles4Souls is a non-profit organization based in Nashville, TN. They collect and distribute new and gently used shoes to people in need. The donations are not only distributed to people in the United States, but world wide. Soles4Souls participates greatly in disaster relief efforts, offers micro-enterprising opportunities in Haiti and other countries and donates shoes and clothes to people in need worldwide.
If the shoes they get are not useable, they are recycled making Soles4Souls a truly sustainable enterprise.
Loretto High FCCLA is partnering up with Soles 4 Souls to collect as many pairs of shoes as possible. The shoe drive will begin on Monday, November 10th and conclude on Tuesday, December 2nd. New and gently used shoes will be accepted during this time. Donation bins will be set up at Loretto High School, Leoma Elementary School, South Lawrence Elementary School, and the Lawrenceburg Walmart. Loretto High FCCLA would greatly appreciate your donations and support to help Soles4Souls.
