Rotary Interact Club will concentrate many of its efforts on the organization called Soles for Souls.
“We have officially started our Soles for Souls projects,” Sally Bae, Interact publicity adviser and junior, said.
“It’s a charity that donates shoes to those around the world who need it. We’re partnering with a church that donates to the charity,” she said.
Donation boxes have been placed in two cafeterias and in the natatorium.
Bae said people should drop off new or gently-used shoes that will be given to people in many different countries around the world, who don’t have proper shoes to wear.
Sponsor Brenda Lester said she thinks donating to the charity is a great idea for students.
“It’s a great way to get shoes on the feet of people who really need it,” she said.
Interact will also choose one other international service project to complete. The club is also planning to hold a bake sale to fund the charities they choose.
