Don't toss out those shoes! Toss them at BFR
Don't toss out your old shoes. Bluffton Family Recreation want them. The BFR shoe drive now takes place year-around.
Earlier this spring BFR's shoe drive collected 5,550 pairs of shoes, earning BFR over $2,000.
The drive not only keep shoes out of landfills, it sends them to 24 non-profit agencies around the globe. There the shoes will be refurbished and used.
