Case CLC Launches Shoe Collection Drive
Shoe donations help support micro-enterprises in developing nations and reduce what goes into landfills
Akron, Ohio, Sept. 21, 2021: Case CLC is conducting a shoe drive through December 3rd, and will earn funds based on the total weight of the shoes collected as Funds2Orgs will purchase all of the donated footwear. Anyone can help by dropping off gently worn, used, or new shoes at Case CLC.
All donated shoes will be redistributed throughout the Funds2Orgs network of microenterprise partners in developing nations. Funds2Orgs helps impoverished people start, maintain, and grow businesses in countries such as Haiti, Honduras, and other nations in Central America and Africa. Proceeds from the shoe sales are used to feed, clothe and house their families. One budding entrepreneur in Haiti even earned enough to send her son to law school.
By donating gently worn, used and new shoes to the Case CLC Shoe Collection Drive, the shoes will be given a second chance and make a difference in people’s lives.
