The Central Pennsylvania Animal Alliance’s (CPAA) shoe collection drive is underway.
From now until November 15, the non-profit is collecting shoes for “Share Your Sole” to raise funds for the Hounds of Prison Education (HOPE) program at SCI-Camp Hill, which is were inmates train and rehabilitate rescued and shelter dogs to get the dogs ready to be adopted.
All types and sizes of shoes are being collected, as long as they’re new or gently used.
The CPAA will get 40 cents for each pound of shoes collected. The goal is to raise $1,000.
