Employees of Parents as Teachers National Center, a St. Louis-based international nonprofit organization, stepped up by donating more than 140 pairs of gently worn shoes to the Soles4Souls Shoe Campaign between June 16-July16. The shoes will be shipped to the Soles4Souls warehouses in Tennessee.
"As an organization devoted to helping families provide their children with the best start possible, Parents as Teachers National Center could not resist the chance to help families in need of a basic necessity," says Susan Stepleton, CEO and President of Parents as Teachers National Center. "This was a chance for us to reach out to another non-profit that is doing excellent work and we enjoyed the opportunity."
