Here at Soles4Souls, it is impossible to talk about our impact without acknowledging the fundamental engine that keeps our organization running. The force that propels us forward and allows Soles4Souls to continue creating opportunity, serving those in need and protecting the environment. The people who inspire our team and overall mission day in and day out.
We are talking about the hundreds of thousands of people who clean out their closets and collect shoes to donate to Soles4Souls each year. The hardworking groups who help sort and load product every day in our warehouses all across the country and world. The dedicated travelers who give their time, energy and love on international trips to bring the gift of new shoes to children in need.
Our network of volunteers.
Soles4Souls’ impact simply would not be possible without them, which is why we are thrilled to recognize two special volunteers in particular who have made outstanding contributions to our impact this past year. The 2018 recipients of the Michele James Volunteer of the Year Award are Pam and Claire Baker!
In addition to their global influence, however, the duo is also committed to serving those in need close to their home. Over the years, Pam and Claire have helped facilitate the distribution of new shoes and clothing to people in need at numerous Soles4Souls events in the Minneapolis area.
Most recently, Pam and Claire volunteered to help Soles4Souls distribute 250 pairs of new shoes to people in need with Minnesota-based non-profit Loaves and Fishes, where our team surprised the deserving duo with the Michele James Volunteer of the Year Award.
Experience the emotional event in the video below.
The Michele James Volunteer of the Year award is something we are very proud of, as it was named after the wonderful Michele James who, in addition to collecting over 500,000 pairs of shoes to support our mission, continues to serve as an incredible embodiment of Soles4Souls’ values.
To Pam, Claire, and all of our volunteers that so generously supported our mission this past year: thank you.
