Kent Lutheran Shoe Drive "Kicks Off" Again!

After last year's tremendous success with the shoe drive, we'll be re-launching the shoe drive this winter.

Who:  Anyone can participate!
What:  Used shoes in re-usable condition.
When: October 15 through January 31 at various locations in Western Washington.
Why:  The used shoes are collected and re-sold to wholesalers who make the available in developing nations, thus providing high-quality and low-cost footwear for people who may not have otherwise been able to purchase them--it also provides our team with an income for our ministry work in South Sudan.
How:  You collect shoes at your place of work, school or worship, and we'll collect them whenever you need it.  Our shoes get packed/sorted and shipped abroad.

To sign up to host a collection drive at your school, church or office, email us at klcsouthsudan@gmail.com or call Jessica Ward at 253-350-5427 with questions.
