Donate your gently used shoes this Saturday & help entrepreneurs

Shoe drive in Huntington Valley benefits local nonprofit One House at a Time.

Have gently used shoes sitting around?

Donate them this Saturday, February 20th at the One House at a Time (OHAAT) Warehouse in Huntington Valley, PA. Make sure there are no holes, tears, or skates – but you can donate everything from heels to dance shoes and more.

OHAAT’s Beds for Kids program is collecting gently used shoes that will be sent around the world via their partnership with Funds2Orgs. OHAAT strives to end child bedless-ness in Greater Philadelphia and surrounding counties. 

For every 25 pairs of shoes collected, OHAAT will receive funds, used to help entrepreneurs start their own entreprises and learn business skills.

Drop off: Saturday, February 20th from 11 AM to 1 PM. 421 Pike Rd, Unit 5 Huntington Valley, PA.

If you miss Saturday’s shoe drive, you can find other donation options here.
