Greenfield FBLA Launches Shoe Drive Fundraiser to Raise Money for National Convention
Greenfield FBLA is conducting a shoe drive fundraiser to raise funds for National Convention in Orlando and other upcoming FBLA experiences. Greenfield FBLA will earn funds based on the total weight of the pairs of gently worn, used and new shoes collected, as Funds2Orgs will issue a check for the collected shoes. Those dollars will benefit our future leaders with travel expenses expected for upcoming National Conventions. Anyone can help by donating gently worn, used and new shoes at Greenfield High School. If you have connections with a student in Greenfield Schools, there is currently a class contest until February 15 to see which class can collect the most shoes with the winning class earning a pizza party. On February 18 from noon to 2 p.m., FBLA members will be hosting a shoe drop off and bake sale in the commons area of the high school, enter the front doors of the building and you will see us.
All donated shoes will then be redistributed throughout the Funds2Orgs network of micro-enterprise (small business) partners. Funds2Orgs works with micro-entrepreneurs in helping them create, maintain and grow small businesses in developing countries where economic opportunity and jobs are limited. Proceeds from the sales of the shoes collected in shoe drive fundraisers are used to feed, clothe and house their families. One budding entrepreneur in Haiti even earned enough to send to her son to law school.
"We are excited about our shoe drive," said Joel Hughes, Greenfield FBLA president. "We know that most people have extra shoes in their closets they would like to donate to us. By doing so, we raise money for our high school students who only go to Nationals if their FBLA project ranks among the very best of Missouri students, and we have the chance to help families in developing nations who need economic opportunities. It's a win-win for everyone.”
By donating gently worn, used and new shoes to the Greenfield FBLA, the shoes will be given a second chance and make a difference in people’s lives around the world.
We used our FBLA funds (along with generous donations from Russell Abstract and Title, KB Mechanical Services LLC, Muncy’s Supermarket, Stockton Lake Outfitters, Shelter Insurance- Sean Holman, Farmers Mutual-Sherri Wise, Greenfield Alumni, Greenfield teachers, and W&B ’74) last year to send our computer science team to Atlanta. This year, nationals will be held in Orlando; hopefully students will make it to nationals again. After looking at various options, we decided to try a shoe drive to raise funds. By doing this, we aren’t asking anybody to buy anything, but we are asking everyone to clean out their closets to help fund our FBLA.
