A Better Footprint (Formerly Worldgoods Fair Trade) is attempting to help African children leave better footprints this summer when they deliver your donations of gently used shoes.

Hundreds of children in the village of Brikama, Gambia (as well as neighboring towns) walk without shoes on roads lined with garbage and broken glass. Miranda Paul, Founder, has even witnessed kids sharing shoes as they relieve their teammates during a local soccer match.

So what can be done? Simply look through your closet, and find those walking shoes, tennis shoes, and dress shoes that you no longer wear. Drop them off at our retail store in Green Bay, WI or mail them to:

A Better Footprint / Worldgoods

1228 Main Street, Suite #1,

Green Bay, WI 54302.

Donations will be accepted until May 11th. They
