This isn’t exactly happening in Queen Anne, but it’s a cool event that’s going on all around us, so I figured I’d post it anyways. A group of local retailers are hosting a gently used shoe drive called Sole of Seattle for Soles4Souls, a non-profit that provides footwear to people in need in more than 125 countries.
Through the month of December you can donate your old shoes at selected businesses with the knowledge that a victim of a natural disaster, or a person living in extreme poverty, will put them to good use.
As a special incentive on Saturday, December 12 all participating locations will provide a 20 percent discount off a new pair of shoes upon donation.
Even though there isn’t a participating business on the hill, there are several in our surrounding neighborhoods, like The Sneakery in Phinney Ridge, re-soul in Ballard, evo and Shoes ‘n Feet in Fremont, GEMS Sneakershop, RPS-Rock Paper Scissors, Zebra Club and ian downtown, Sole Food, and Upper Playground in the University District.

If you are in a not good position and have no money to go out from that, you would require to receive the loan. Because it will aid you definitely. I get commercial loan every single year and feel myself fine just because of that.
