StonaCaatad Stasl Reefing F o o t S h o p p e loo king fo r sho e donations Between Fri,, Nov. 19th and Sun., Dec. 5th, The F oot Shoppe is inviting its customers and supporters to "follow in the footsteps" of some concerned celebrities by dropping off any gently worn shoes or boots and have them donated to their choice of charities -- Nellie's Hostels for Women, The Salvation Army, Halton Women's Place, and Out of the Cold. Four years ago, while walking to his Toronto store on a chilly morning in December, Ron White passed a homeless man shivering on the sidewalk. As president and owner of The Foot Shoppe, White was quick to notice that the man's shoes were old and tom, exposing his toes to the cold. With the spirit of the holiday season in mind, White decided that he wanted to help Toronto's homeless by organizing a shoe drive. Since then, over 2,500 pairs of shoes and boots for men, women, and children have been donated. During the event, donated celebrity shoes, including those of Keifer Sutherland, Jeanne Beker, Dini Petty, Kurt Browning, Andrea Martin, and Mark Tewksbury, will be on display. The Foot Shoppe in Oakville is located at 337 Lakeshore Rd. East. Call 844-3668 for more information.
