10 Steps to
Coordinating a Successful 'Gently Worn' or New Shoe Drive
- Contact “Shoes for Africa” at
404-438-1991. A “Shoes for Africa” representative will
communicate with you via phone or email at info@yesshoesinc.org
to cover shoe drive details.
- Secure a date to begin. Most
shoe drives last around four weeks.
- Secure your drop-off locations
at your place of worship, school, office or other facility.
Secure a location to process the shoes (warehouse, gym,
community building, etc.).
“Shoes for Africa” can provide sample promotional materials such
as posters, flyers for you to help promote your shoe drive.
- Suggest a $1 or $2.00 donation
per pair to offset shipping cost.
- Feel free to use your local TV,
radio, and newspaper to publicize the shoe drive.
- Process the collected shoes by
placing a rubber band around each pair and place in boxes for
shipping.
- Ship your shoes to our warehouse
at McElroy Plaza, 6030 Highway 85, Suite 720, Riverdale, GA
30274.
Contact a “Shoes for Africa” representative with any shipping
questions.
- We will process the shoes and
ship domestically/internationally.
- Publicize your results and
express appreciation for everyone's participation.
