Recycle Shoes
Building a Good Foundation
Wednesday, June 3, 2009
It may not be easy to walk a mile in someone else's shoes, but thanks to Nike and stores like Santa Barbara Running, people can walk, run, hop, skip, and jump ON someone else's shoes.
Drop off your 'retired' running shoes (any brand) to either Santa Barbara Running location, and they'll donate them to Nike's Reuse-A-Shoe program. The program grinds shoes into rubberized material that is used in the construction of new synthetic athletic fields. Since the program started, Nike and their partnering stores have helped donate more than 250 sport surfaces to communities around the world.
Helping others can be so grounding.
