Tennis Shoes - An Easy Way to Give Back!
Apr 4th, 2008 by The Cilks
Giving back to our community is a cause that is near and dear to our hearts. And this week, it can’t get any easier than looking through your closet. The members of Pleasanton’s Junior Girl Scout Troop #32072 are collecting USED tennis shoes (that’s right - your old worn out favorites….and what about all of those pairs that your kids grew out of so fast?) to be donated to NIKE’s Reuse-A-Shoe program. Donated shoes will be recycled into basketball courts, synthetic soccer fields and playground surfaces. Wow….a great way to save the planet and make room in your closet at the same time!
Any brand of shoe will do, in clean condition. (No metal, cleats or dress shoes, please.) Donations can be dropped off through April 14th at either Kathy’s Health Club (3170 Santa Rita Road) or Fleet Feet (310 Main Street, Suite C) in Pleasanton. Or….bag ‘em up and drop them off this Saturday (or next Saturday, April 12th) at Pleasanton’s own Farmer’s Market where the Girl Scouts will have a booth for your convenience from 9 a.m. to noon.
Help make a difference in Pleasanton….for the planet…one step at a time.
Make it a great day!
