CC Students Lauren Paley '11, Kasi Carter '11, and Andrew Baird '12 sort and box shoes to Soles4Souls.<\/p><\/div>\n

The Colorado College community donated enough shoes at the end of the 2009-10 academic year to fill 22 boxes for Soles4Souls.<\/p>\n

The campus-wide project was launched in conjunction with a children\u2019s book, \u201cNew Old Shoes<\/a>,\u201d published by Charlotte Blessing, CC\u2019s director of international programs. The shoe drive was a resounding success, as many faculty, staff, and students stepped up and donated their old shoes. Blessing read her book at the CC Children\u2019s Center, and the children, parents, and staff there donated shoes as well.<\/p>\n
