The Virginia Tech track & field and cross country teams will be holding their second annual Shoe Drive this Saturday, Oct. 24, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in front of Cassell Coliseum.

Please bring any gently worn shoes that you no longer wear, and help provide free footwear to those in desperate need. All shoes will be donated to either Soles4Souls or the Nike Re-Use A Shoe program. Over 250 pairs were collected last year, but the teams hope to at least double that this year.

The shoe drive will happen rain or shine, and the drop-off area will be located in the half-circle bus pull-through on the Spring Road side of Cassell.

A financial donation of $1.00 will be accepted to help the team cover all shipping costs.

Join the Virginia Tech Track & Field and Cross Country team in their efforts to reach out to the less fortunate!
