Seattle, WA – November 2009 – Every 9 seconds, Soles4Souls, Inc. gives away another pair of shoes to someone in need.

DURING THE MONTH OF DECEMBER, WE ARE ASKING OUR CUSTOMERS, FRIENDS AND THE COMMUNITY TO COME DOWN TO OUR SHOP DURING THIS HOLIDAY SEASON AND GIVE THEIR “HEART AND SOLE” BY DONATING YOUR UNUSED SHOES TO THE SOLE OF SEATTLE. WE WILL THEN SEND THEM OFF TO SOLES4SOULS. “We are all very excited to have partnered with each other and collaboratively work to bring together the importance of giving back with the spirit of the holiday season,” says John Mooney of GEMS Sneaker shop.
As a special THANK YOU-On Saturday December 12th as an added incentive to support our shoe drive, all participating locations will provide a 20% discount off a new pair of shoes upon donation.
