Annual Shoe Drive Returns

EUMA (Erie United Methodist Alliance) and All God’s Children Ministries/Ramps of Hope is holding its Annual Shoe Drive to raise funds for its missions. Sewickley UMC will collect new and gently used CLEAN shoes (pairs only) from now until June 9th. Ask your friends, family, and neighbors to help collect shoes. It's a win, win, win situation! EUMA raises much needed funds for outreach ministries, shoes are kept out of landfills, and we support micro-enterprise in developing countries. In prior years, supporters helped to raise over $11,000/year for missions! NEW FOR THIS YEAR: You do not need a collection kit. Simply make sure the pair is connected, whether by the shoelaces or use of rubber bands. A collection box will be outside of the Simpson Room. The more unwanted shoes cleared from closets, the more mission support is generated!
