HALO Launches Shoe Drive Fundraiser

HALO Launches Shoe Drive Fundraiser to Raise Money for our Animal Rescue/Behavior Modification Facility

Halo Shoe Drive

Xenia, OH, 2018 – Helping Animals Lost and Orphaned - HALO https://www.halok9behavior.com/ is conducting a shoe drive fundraiser through November 16th to raise funds for their Animal Rescue/Behavior Modification Facility. HALO will earn funds based on the total weight of the pairs of gently worn, used and new shoes collected, as Funds2Orgs will issue a check for the collected shoes. Those dollars will benefit HALO’s new facility. Anyone can help by donating gently worn, used and new shoes at the following locations:

            Live Better Massage and Relaxation

            Gypsy-Alley Boutique

            Tonya’s Pampered Pets

            A Cut Above Salon

            Broken & Beloved Floral & Designs

            Xenia Community Schools

All donated shoes will then be redistributed throughout the Funds2Orgs network of micro-enterprise (small business) partners. Funds2Orgs works with micro-entrepreneurs in helping them create, maintain and grow small businesses in developing countries where economic opportunity and jobs are limited. Proceeds from the sales of the shoes collected in shoe drive fundraisers are used to feed, clothe and house their families. One budding entrepreneur in Haiti even earned enough to send her son to law school.

"We are excited about our shoe drive," said Cathy Winter Brown, Public Relations for HALO. "We know that most people have extra shoes in their closets they would like to donate to us. By doing so, we raise money for this much needed behavior facility, and we have the chance to help families in developing nations who need economic opportunities. It's a win-win for everyone.”

By donating gently worn, used and new shoes to HALO, the shoes will be given a second chance and make a difference in people’s lives around the world.
