Every Year i go thru my shoes and find the ones i wont wear again or that are slightly used and donate them to charity.
I dont donate them to places like
salvation army because they end up selling them more often then not but i
do donate to places like http://www.soles4soulscanada.com/
also footsteps for africa
they send shoes to third world countries to help kids and others have a pair of shoes to wear that are not falling apart.
This year i will be donating a good
portion of my collection aswell as my fellow reviewers, between this
charity and a couple others i will be donating over 190 pairs of shoes
(most a few seasons old) but some are new in the box that i wont wear
anymore etc. If you have shoes in wearable condition that you will no
longer be using i encourage you to find a charity that does this type of
thing and donate to them rather then other places. Look for charity’s
that are sending clothing to third world countries and help them help
the world, it gives you good karma and a great feeling to know you
helped a kid who may not of had shoes or had cardboard tied to his feet
actually have a proper pair of kicks to wear in his time of struggle and
need.
They do not need to be skate shoes at all
as long as they are in wearable condition this can make a big difference
and help those less fortunate.
Please find it in your heart to help
with something you dont need anymore and has no value to you, something
with no value to you mite mean the world to them.
thanks
