Animal Alliance Fundraiser - Sneaker Drive
We know that most people have extra sneakers in their closets they would like to donate rather than throw away. By doing so, we raise money for Animal Alliance and help the environment. It’s a win – win for everyone!
GotSneakers has developed a unique fundraising program that asks communities to reach into their closets, not their pockets! The sneaker recycling program helps keeps sneakers out of landfills, which has harmful effects on our environment, and helps raise funds for organizations.
August 15th - Animal Alliance will have adoptable dogs at the vineyard 2-4pm
August 15th & 16th Sneaker Drive
