From November 4, 2009 through December 24, 2009, all 120 Mandee stores will be collecting donations of gently worn shoes to be given to Soles4Souls, an international shoe charity dedicated to providing shoes to people in need. As a thank you for participation, each customer that donates will receive a 20% off discount coupon towards an item of their choice.

It is estimated that Americans have 1.5 billion pairs of unused shoes lying in their closets. And judging by my closet, I'd say that sounds about right! Dig deep and see if you can't donate a couple pairs to those in need. It's a great cause and easy to contribute.
