Better Together Animal Rescue holds Used Shoe Drive
DON’T FORGET! We are currently in the midst of our ten-week shoe collection challenge and we have a HUGE GOAL! This will be our last ever shoe drive and we have the lofty goal of collecting 5,000 pairs. Better Together will receive a donation for every pair of shoes we collect, which will then be redistributed to over 26 third-world nations. This will help to save lives and give the less privileged protection for their feet…what is better than that?Please leave donations of gently used and new shoes behind our building located at 211 West 4th St, Vinton.
