Last year we collected 92 pairs of shoes. This year's goal is 300 pairs!!! Help us reach our goal for a good cause. Drop-off your shoes with us at weekly Wednesday group runs, Friday's early packet pickup or on race morning.

Soles4Souls is a 501(c)(3) 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 given away over 14 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.

Anyone can join our cause, and we need your help.
