Life is Better with Less Clutter and More You!

I am sure many of you were aware that last week was National Barefoot Week and June 1st was the official kick off day. Many celebrities and regular folk participated in the Soles4Soles campaign  andwalked around with no shoes to show support the campaign.

Green Recycle Fact: Since starting up in 2005, Soles4Souls has given out over 14 million shoes in 127 countries!

Well, you can do more than walk barefoot for a day by donating your shoes (shoes that are in your closet that you never wear) to someone who really needs it.

Your donated shoes could be a lifesaver to the woman that cannot afford shoes for a job interview or the child that needs shoes for school. Shoptobegreen is an advocate of recycling whenever and however you can! You can make a huge difference on your own by donating shoes to your local community center or church.

According to EcoRazzi, Style mavens like Sarah Jessica Parker, Elton John, Jessica Simpson, Michelle Pfeiffer, Chelsea Handler, and Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian have all given up a pair of shoes to be auctioned off on Charitybuzz.
The auction for Soles4Souls Barefoot week is active until June 22nd.
