Banking on Shoes

What do you do with your unwanted shoes? Here is an idea for you.
The need in our country for children, woman and mens shoes is one of great size. Don't throw them out. There is always someone that needs what you don't want.
You can start by dropping off unused pairs of shoes to these locations, shelters, churches, even more. If you can't drop them off or send them, call for a pic up. There are groups in your area that are always looking for shoes, clothes, even working appliances. Let's work to put shoes on ever person that needs them.
