About this Opportunity
Do good and feel good while social distancing!
Weve noticed lots of folks talking about using their social distancing time to finally tackle some things theyve been meaning to do forever like cleaning out their closets and setting aside things to donate. If thats you, were guessing youll stumble across some shoes and clothing you forgot you hadand will never wear again. And if you do, well take em.
Here's why: the average person in North America throws away 70 pounds of textiles every year.Thats 21 billion pounds of extra waste dumped in our landfills every year! And the EPA estimates only 15% is donated or recycled.
Since 2006, our amazing supporters have diverted 59 million pounds of shoes and clothing from landfills.
Soles4Souls Mission:
Soles4Souls disrupts the cycle of poverty by creating sustainable jobs and providing relief through the distribution of shoes and clothing around the world. Headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, the organization repurposes product supply its micro-enterprise, disaster relief and direct assistance programs. Since 2006, we have distributed more than 35 million pairs of shoes in 127 countries and generated over $250 million in economic impact. A non-profit social enterprise, Soles4Souls earns more than 70% of its income and commits 100% of donations to programs.
Volunteer Project:
