Shoeros for Haiti!!!

just thinking about the crisis is Haiti makes my head spin and my heart heavy.  but i stumbled on to a great way to help out...

shoes!!

the group soles4souls  collects gently used shoes and distributes them to people in need across the globe, and they are making a huge effort to help out in haiti.  

who knew that those old sturdy dependable shoes in the back of the closet that never see the light of day could be so helpful?  after years of neglect and feeling left behind all the fabulous boots and wedges and platform sandals, it turns out that those comfy but hideously embarrassing crocs, uggs, and workboots can finally step into the spotlight and become heros!

shoeros!!

drop off locations in the bay area happen to be at 2 of my favorite shoe stores, which is also a nice way to fill up the space the shoeros leave behind:


SHUZ 6012 College Ave., Oakland

SHOE BIZ 877 Valencia St., San Francisco
