Shoe Drive for Soles4Souls

Don’t throw those old shoes away! Drop them off in our collection box in the church lobby until the end of May. The building is open Monday-Friday (9 AM - 3 PM) using the school entrance, or Sunday mornings (9 AM - noon) using the church entrance.


Soles4Souls is a Nashville-based charity that collects shoes from the warehouses of footwear companies and the closets of people like you. The charity distributes these shoes to people in need,  regardless of race, religion, class, or any other criteria. Since 2005, Soles4Souls has delivered over 17 million pairs of new and gently worn shoes. The shoes have been distributed to people in over 127 countries, including Kenya, Thailand, Nepal and the United States.


Please remember to secure your shoes together in pairs, and make a donation (suggested $1 per pair) in the envelope to help with the delivery costs.
