Soles4Souls: Reaching Communities In Need
By Human Resources Department
We wear our galoshes in the spring to keep dry in the rain, our sandals in the summer to ward off the heat, sneakers in the fall for school and sports, and boots in the winter to keep us warm. Can you imagine a season without shoes?
Sadly, over 300 million children around the world know that reality all too well. And without shoes to protect their feet, discomfort and disease spreads rapidly.
That is what inspired the Rogers community to get involved with Soles4Souls this June. Together, we collected over 400 pairs of shoes for those in need! These included sneakers, dress shoes, and even slippers.
Soles4Souls was started by a member of the footwear industry following the tsunami in Southeast Asia and Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana. And the effort to provide shoes for those in need has been spreading ever since.
Since its inception, Soles4Souls has helped millions of people in over 127 countries including the United States, Mexico, Venezuela, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, The Dominican Republic, Haiti, Indonesia, Brazil, Uganda, Sudan, and Romania. Every 7 seconds, Soles4Souls donates another pair of shoes!
Rogers Corporation is grateful for the opportunity to contribute to such a worthy cause. And we hope that next year we can make an even bigger difference!
And you can help to achieve that goal. The next time you or your family outgrow a pair of shoes, put them aside and join us in the effort to help those in need, all year round.
