The Crosswicks Monthly Meeting has joined the reuse movement.
It has just signed up for ShoeBox Recycling. It’s an amazing community service fundraising opportunity that lets you recycle your shoes and find your soleMate.
It will be collecting shoes for reuse, spreading the message that worn is not worn out and, hopefully, connecting with people around the globe through the magic of a SoleMate note; just like the old message in a bottle, only now the vessel is your shoes you no longer wear.
People all over the globe depend on secondhand shoes so they can attend school, to protect against bacteria-borne illnesses, for self –esteem and for job creation.
ShoeBox Recycling will send boxes to fill, pay for all shipping costs, the tools for a successful shoe drive and the chance to meet our SoleMate. It pays 50 cents per pound for good, reusable and re-wearable shoes that are collected.
This collection will help Meeting to earn a little money while clearing out our closets and sharing with those in need. There will be collection boxes in the meeting house and First Day School on Front Street in Crosswicks.
For more information, call 609-298-5616.
