What is the NAPO Challenge?
The Challenge is a world wide program with NAPO members to encourage their community and clients to clean out their closets and donate gently worn footwear. Collect as many shoes as you can from June 1, 2011 to January 31, 2012 for a chance to win a trip for two on one of our Haiti distribution trips*!
Why are shoes important?
Footwear is a first step in helping people in impoverished areas live healthy, productive lives. Footwear can help eliminate the spreading of diseases through the foot as well as help children obtain an education - as many schools have footwear requirements to attend.
How does it work?
Sign up for the NAPO Challenge and collect shoes! It's just that simple. We'll send you boxes and materials, all you need to do is collect shoes and send us your tally weekly! (To sign up, click the Get started button below and choose NAPO Challenge in the pull down menu on the shoe drive sign-up page).
