NAPO Partners with Soles4Souls

The NAPO Challenge is the result of a partnering effort with Soles4Souls (S4S) (www.soles4souls.org), a Nashville-based charity that provides shoes to the world’s less fortunate men, women, and children.  Since 2005, S4S has given away over 14 million pairs of shoes to souls in over 127 countries, including the United States.  All types of shoes including sneakers, dress shoes, sandals, flip flops, boots are accepted.  Shoes that can no longer be worn will be recycled, and solo shoes will be paired with a mate.

From now until January 31, 2012, professional organizers and their clients across the country will be collecting and donating shoes to this worthy cause. The individual who collects the most shoes will win a trip for two to Haiti to distribute shoes for S4S in 2012.

A special thank you to Manhattan Mini Storage (Manhattan) and Storage Quarters (Long Island), who are partnering with us in our Soles4Souls Challenge by providing interim storage locations to house shoe donations. And to Asher Fink of Junkluggers, who has graciously agreed to transport shoe donations from interim storage facilities to the S4S warehouse in Edison, NJ.

For NAPO New York members who wish to participate, please visit the members section of the web site.  Further inquiries; please send an e-mail to S4S@NAPO-NY.net.
