Manchester Running Company Announces Shoe Drive
MANCHESTER RUNNING COMPANY ANNOUNCES SHOE DRIVE TO BENEFIT
SOLES4SOULS AT HIGHLAND PARK SCHOOL ON MARCH 20, 2010
Manchester residents are invited to recycle their “gently worn” shoes for people in need
For a limited time, Soles4Souls and Manchester Running Company will be collecting your gently worn footwear and/or donations to ship the shoes to a person in need, whether they are victims of a natural disaster or subject to living in extreme poverty. It is estimated that Americans have 1.5 billion pairs of unused shoes lying in their closets. The charity can use each and every one of these pairs to make a tangible difference in someone's life.
The location for the shoe drive will take place in conjunction with the Second Annual Finally Spring 5k! sponsored by Manchester Running Company. Residents wishing to donate shoes may do so at the Start/Finish of the Finally Spring 5k! at Highland Park School on Ferguson St. in Manchester on March 20, 2010 beginning at 8:00 a.m. through 12:00 p.m. For complete information please visit www.manchesterrunningcompany.com.
