GREATER MILWAUKEE, WI – Join Stan’s Shoes in taking care of our community’s “soles” throughout Greater Milwaukee, by participating in their annual Share-A-Pair Shoe Drive Saturday, February 1 through Friday, February 28.
Drop off new or gently used shoes, sneakers, and boots for men, women, and kids as well as new socks at any Stan’s Shoes’ Share-A-Pair collection bins located at:
- Stan’s Shoes in Brookfield at The Plaza at 17155 W. Bluemound Road

- Sundays from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
This year, donated shoes, sneakers, boots, and new socks for men, women, and kids will be distributed locally to the Milwaukee Rescue Mission/Joy House, Hope House, Sojourner Family Peace Center, Repairers of the Breach homeless day shelter in Milwaukee, and Father Gene’s HELP Center in West Allis. The remainder of the shoes will be given to Soles4Souls, a global not-for-profit organization that distributes shoes to impoverished people in over 125 countries around the world.
According to Megan Sajdak, Marketing Director for Stan’s Shoes, “Those donating and shopping at our stores will also be able to help these deserving Milwaukee nonprofits we are partnering with by rounding up their purchase. Also, as our way of thanking those who donate to Stan’s Shoes’ Share-A-Pair Shoe Drive, everyone donating will receive $10 off their next regular-price shoe or handbag purchase through March 5th, 2025, at any Stan’s Shoes location.”
Sajdak adds that “Stan’s Facebook and Instagram will also be showcasing these local nonprofits throughout the month of February for people to get to know the great work that they do in our community. We have outstanding organizations in Milwaukee that do amazing work. This is a great time to give back and learn about the resources available here in the Milwaukee area.”
