Re: Markell Shoe Donation -- Size 000

[Guest guest]

So far I haven't heard back about any one place to donate shoes to. I'm

kind of wondering the same thing actually.

sooo.....

What do y'all think of someone keeping track of who has shoes and bars to

donate and when someone needs them that person can contact the person who

has them and they can figure out how to get them to them. Maybe something

like this would be a first step to setting up something like a donation

center (I'm thinking someone who wants to accept and store a supply and

handle getting shoes out to people when requested).

I could create and maintain a database of those who have shoes to donate, I

could list sizes in the record and get people together as needed.

Does this sound like something people would go for? If someone was

interested in handling getting the word out to people who have websites to

put some sort of link maybe this could take off?

At one time Dr. Pirani and Dr. Herzenberg were accepting braces/shoes

for their work in third world countries. I am not sure if this is

still the case.

I would email Dr. Ponseti's secretary, Joyce, and ask if there are

any organizations that collect the shoes and bars for clubfoot

families domestically or abroad. She would probably know.

I think that's a great idea, if we can get it to work.
