Events · Monday, September 22nd, 2008 – Saturday, October 4th, 2008 Z-Coil Pain Relief Footwear in Zeeland, MI Partners with Shoe Charity
Holland- Zeeland residents are invited to recycle their 'gently worn' shoes for people in need during Z-CoiL’s “GET BACK ON YOUR FEET” SHOE DRIVE.Zeeland, MI– September 2008 – Every 23 seconds, Soles4Souls Inc. gives away another pair of shoes to someone in need. The shoe charity has earned glowing endorsements from Hollywood stars and professional athletes, but the people that truly make the non-profit organization effective are those who clean out their closets to personally drop off their ‘gently worn’ shoes at a participating location, such as Z-CoiL® Pain Relief Footwear®.
For a limited time, Soles4Souls and Z-CoiL® will be collecting your gently worn footwear and/or donations to ship the shoes to a person in need, whether they are victims of a natural disaster or subject to living in extreme poverty. It is estimated that Americans have 1.5 billion pairs of unused shoes lying in their closets. The charity can use each and every one of these pairs to make a tangible difference in someone's life.
“We can use the shoes taking up space in your closet to change the world one pair at a time,” Wayne Elsey, Founder of Soles4Souls™, said. “We need our partners in Holland-Zeeland to 'STEP UP' and get behind our call for action. It’s one of the most simple yet profound gifts you can make, because it will greatly improve someone’s life in the most difficult of times.”
Hurricane Ike battered the Texas and Louisiana coasts before striking Houston. Z-CoiL® Pain Relief Footwear® has responded by teaming up with Soles4Souls™ to provide shoes for victims of domestic/international natural disasters and impoverished parts of the world. Z-CoiL’s “Get Back On Your Feet” Shoe Drive will take place between now and October 4th at Z-CoiL® Pain Relief Footwear®, 26 N. State Street, Zeeland, MI .
