Sole Provider
Wondering what in the world you are going to do with all those running shoes in your closet that you’re never going to wear again, but don’t want to throw them away? Why not donate them! Bring in your old shoes that are still in decent condition (please wash first!) and place them in the bin located in the Student Fitness Center lobby. All shoes will be given to the Glen-Ed Food Pantry to help out local individuals that may be struggling and need that extra help.
