Donate Your Used Shoes 
Troop 750 and Heritage Presbyterian Church are partnering again this year to participate in Dan Beard Council’s Council-wide Good Turn Project by collecting used shoes.  The shoes will then be given to Soles4Soles, a non-profit group dedicated to “Wearing out Poverty” by distributing your old shoes to people in need.
We will be accepting your old shoes at our Troop meetings thru February 8th and at our Scout Sunday Service on February 4th. Please rubber-band the shoes together/tie the laces together and place them in the collection box.  There will be a box at the front table at each Troop meeting and in the Atrium during Scout Sunday.
