Shoes Are Needed for San Fernando Valley Homeless

Sweet Charities SFV at Panera Bread in NorthridgeStar Tomlinson, of The Drain Company, is heading up a drive to collect shoes to aid the homeless in the San Fernando Valley.  It is called Operation Cover Those Toes.  We are looking for all sorts, including dress shoes that can be used for job interviews.

If your closets are filled with unnecessary shoes, why not consider donating them to this noble cause.

We are looking for slightly worn pairs.  As winter sets in with the possibility of rain, water proof varieties would be needed as well.

Drop off your shoes at Dream Dinners in Granada Hills on Thursday from 3pm – 9pm.

11852 3/4 Balboa Blvd
Granada Hills, CA 91344

You may also drop them off at MSM Consulting Group in Northridge on Tuesdays.  Contact Marcia Marcus at 888 434-1015

Non tennis shoes will be donated to Safe Passages, for their Dress For Success Program to aid those who are victims of domestic violence.

So ladies, don’t horde your shoes like Imelda Marcos.  Give them to someone who is less fortunate.  In today’s economy, more and more people are taking to the street including women and children.  Your gift of shoes will be much appreciated.

For More Information, call Star at (818) 344-1114
