The Knights of Columbus are once again asking you to donate gently worn shoes to the Share Your Soles® charity on the weekends (only) of October 8-9 and October 15-16 during the Knight’s annual fall shoe drive. We will be accepting shoes of any type and size, for any type of weather or sport. This includes athletic shoes, sandals, school shoes, boots, dress shoes, work shoes, slippers, etc. Collection bins will be located at the entryway of the church activity center nearest the church.
Share Your Soles® is a non-profit 501(c)(3) tax exempt charitable organization dedicated to sharing gently worn/new shoes to those in greatest need. They provide shoes both worldwide, as well as right here in the United States. Be sure that the shoes you donate are gently worn or new, are clean, and can withstand heavy wear. Please no holes or worn off bottoms. Monetary donations also are appreciated and are used by the charity primarily for shipping and handling expenses.
The ongoing drive is being conducted in memory of the late Robert Geary, founder of the Knight’s annual shoe drive. Please direct questions to Joseph D. Kubal, telephone: 630-983-6159, email: jdrk4715@aol.com.
