This is long overdue since my visit this summer, but Share Your Soles deserves 10 gold stars for living their mission of changing peoples' lives one pair of shoes at at time. People are impacted positively by this organization whether they are the giver, the recipient, or the volunteer! Plus, there is no other charitable organizations I know where the founder is as passionate, caring, and giving as Mona is!!!

Share Your Soles has been providing desperately needed shoes to those in needs for over 23 years. But it’s not just the recipients who benefit. Adults, teens and children who donate shoes and volunteer their time at the warehouse learn about the lives of the people they are helping. Mona’s passion for her work and gift for bringing her stories to life are inspirational.

Share your soles is a charity organization that I am proud to support. They have helped millions of people worldwide with live saving footwear in some of most dire and impoverished parts of the world. The organization believes in the mission, and the community bands together to donate gently worn shoes and cash to help provide proper footwear to those in need. I feel my contributions are always appreciated and I recommend anyone looking to donate shoes, time, or resources or support this organization.

Mona is an angel on earth. She has started a charity that genuinely wants to do good. I would recommend this charity for corporate events, volunteer hours, and just because you want to help out!

What an amazing perspective on helping people with a basic need-SHOES! This non-profit organization operates out of the Pullman Neighborhood of Chicago and has no doubt changed many individual's lives with their donation of shoes. Founder Mona Purdy was recently interviewed in an article with Fleet Feet a locally owned and operated sports store with several locations around Chicago. See: To Date-She has participated in providing over 3 MILLION pairs of repurposed shoes! Her latest endeavor included providing shoes to the survivors of Hurricane Dorian in the Bahamas! Donations of "gently used" shoes can be donated at all seven of Fleet Feet's Stores.

Beautiful charity and inspiring! I have actually had the opportunity to help Mona and Share Your Soles on a mission to donate shoes to children in South Dakota and it was an amazing experience. I have been a volunteer for 5 years and see nothing but professionalism from Mona Purdy and all staff. Share your Soles’ staff work hard and are dedicated to the cause of changing peoples lives!

What an awe-inspiring group! I have known SYS for well over 15 years, and they continue to do great works. Watching shipments of shoes go out to more than 40 countries, adding new locations, medical supplies and books in more recent years, the small staff works alongside volunteers to get the job done each time. Having traveled with founder, Mona Purdy, on a mission trip to Honduras, I have 1st hand knowledge of her ability to make magic happen for those in need. Wishing SYS, its supporters and recipients a caring, compassionate and bountiful 2019!

Mona on a mission, what one can do with dedication and purpose! What a great operation, under construction with plans to do more by educating our youth about the lack of basics, we too often take for granted! SHOES that save surgery amputations!
