Creation Kids will be collecting Sneakers!
What kind of shoes? They MUST BE SNEAKERS and in pairs. Sneakers ONLY – Old, retired, too small – we will take them all.
Where do I drop them off? The collection box in the children’s hallway upstairs by the BIG room.
Raise Money for what? The Children’s Ministry will be giving the proceeds to Shoes for Kids.
This is an ongoing mission!
Did You Know?
Most people throw away their used sneakers every 125-200 days without ever thinking about recycling. Since sneakers are manufactured with materials that are not biodegradable, they remain in landfills or are incinerated, which leads to toxic chemicals in our air and soil.
The process of manufacturing sneakers produces large amounts of CO2 which contributes to the serious effects of climate change and global warming. Recycling and reusing sneakers keeps sneakers out of landfills, reduces the need for manufacturing new shoes and sneakers, and supports a growing circular economy.
