August Drives - Soles4Souls and School Supplies!

Through the month of August, we are dedicating one of our collection bins to your shoes! We're donating all collected shoes to local non-profit, Soles4Souls. If you have shoes that don't fit, or shoes you just plain don't wear anymore, we want them. 

Believe it or not, the shoes you don't need could be another person's FIRST PAIR!! In fact, YOUR donated pair might be the pair needed for someone to be allowed to attend school. OR the pair you donate might help to fund a micro-enterprise that brings jobs to a community that otherwise has no way to earn a living. So here's your chance to put your shoes back to work... Just drop them in the bin and we'll do the rest.  


In our other bin....  
We are collecting school supplies for local kids in need. Everyone of us remembers, or is currently reviewing, the long list of school supplies that are demanded for the first day of school. We buy it all. But it's costly.... What would you do if you couldn't afford it? Instead of watching kids go without, we're helping out the best way we can!

Here's a list of items needed:

Pocket folders, 3-ring binders, dividers 
Backpacks, lunch boxes 
Colored pencils/pens, markers, crayons 
Glue sticks
Paper: notebook, graph, construction
Hand sanitizer, tissue 
Highlighters 
Scissors (blunt tips) 
Organizers/planners
Pens/pencils, erasers 
USB flash drives
Calculators
Notebooks
