Caribe Realty Helps Soles4Souls Fight Poverty One Pair of Shoes at a Time

Caribe Realty spearheads spring shoe donation drive for Soles4Souls to help people in need step out of poverty.

Orange Beach, AL

Caribe Realty, the exclusive onsite real estate agency for Caribe Resort, is hosting the donation drive for Soles4Souls from now through April. New or gently worn pairs of shoes can be dropped off at 28103 Perdido Beach Blvd., Suite 100, Orange Beach, AL 36561.

“This altruistic organization provides shoes to people who need them the most, and you can help,” said Stan Szapiel, general manager of Caribe Realty. “A new pair of shoes can have a huge impact on the life of a person in need.”

Soles4Souls is a nonprofit global social enterprise committed to fighting poverty through the collection and distribution of shoes and clothing. Soles4Souls aims is to eradicate extreme poverty by 2050. Children every day are prevented from attending school and adults are unable to work as walking becomes unbearable, which perpetuates the cycle of poverty. To date, Soles4Souls has collected and distributed more than 30 million pairs of shoes to those in need in 127 countries around the world and all 50 states in the U.S.

“Businesses and individuals that host donation drives for Soles4Souls help us fulfill our mission by providing short-term relief and long-term solutions to global poverty,” said Buddy Teaster, Soles4Souls CEO. “Every single one of those pairs of shoes collected by our partners makes a difference in someone’s life.”
