Shoe Drive

Emerson Jr. High PTA is conducting a shoe drive fundraiser January 6 – March 6, 2025 to raise funds for teacher grants and a new Marquee sign for the school. The PTA will earn funds based on the total weight of the pairs of gently worn, used and new shoes collected, as Funds2Orgs will issue a check for the collected shoes. Those dollars will benefit  the PTA. Anyone can help by donating gently worn, used and new shoes at Emerson Jr High.

All donated shoes will then be redistributed throughout the Funds2Orgs network of micro-enterprise (small business) partners. Funds2Orgs works with micro-entrepreneurs in helping them create, maintain and grow small businesses in developing countries where economic opportunity and jobs are limited. Proceeds from the sales of the shoes collected in shoe drive fundraisers are used to feed, clothe and house their families. One budding entrepreneur in Haiti even earned enough to send to her son to law school.
