It's a new year, so clean out your closets and recycle new and used shoes that are not in use! Help to put shoes on the feet of those in need , while at the same time helping the environment by recycling shoes that may otherwise be sent to a landfill.

The shoes we collect from our meeting will be donated to the Orange County Rescue Mission. After contacting them, I understand they have started a small running club within their organization and are always in need of all types of shoes.

    from an email from McKenzi to me: "I am going to the Orange County Rescue Mission Saturday to drop off the shoes. I collected from a few of my meetup groups and then some coworkers, so it was def. a success. Thank you!"

       McKenzi, our Volunteer Asst. Organizer did a great job coming up with this idea for a shoe drive! I brought some shoes that were new and old, and could feel good about helping someone get back on their feet (no pun intended) with a shoe that never fit me well, hopefully will be perfect for someone else. A used pair of UGGS washed in hot water, still a good shoe!
