When the shoe doesn't fit, give the shoe(s) away!
 
At the Rotary Club of Westborough, our commitment to "Service Above Self" extends both locally and globally. That's why we're thrilled to launch our first annual Shoe Drive in partnership with Funds2Orgs! This is your chance to easily declutter your home (and yes, it feels great!) while making a tangible difference right here in Westborough and empowering entrepreneurs in developing nations.
 
Your donated gently used shoes will not only help us raise crucial funds for our community initiatives but will also be given a second life, fueling micro-businesses and reducing environmental waste. It's a simple way to support your neighbors near and far, and contribute to a more sustainable world – a truly feel-good donation with a triple impact!
 
Our goal is to raise $2,500 by June 19.  To reach this goal, we need to collect approx. 7,500 pairs of shoes which equate to approx. 625 big white trash bags filled with shoes (weighing approx. 10 lbs. per bag).  Sound impossible?!  Absolutely not, but we need your help.
