BALDWIN BONE & JOINT PARTNERS WITH BALDWIN COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS

& CITY HOPE CHURCH FOR 20TH ANNUAL MANY MORE MILES SHOE DRIVE

 

2024 Community Outreach Campaign Kickoff - January 8

 

DAPHNE, ALA. (December 22, 2023) – Local school-age kids, runners and exercise enthusiasts may have put a lot of miles on old running shoes and shoes for all purposes, but when they are donated to the “Many More Miles” campaign, those gently used shoes will come to life again as they land on the feet of someone who really needs them.

 

For the 20th year, Baldwin Bone & Joint, P.C. will host this important community outreach project, and, for the third consecutive year, the local orthopaedic practice will partner with Baldwin County Public Schools and City Hope Church.

 

Since its inception, response to the campaign has grown from 200 pairs donated in 2004 to a record-breaking 4,000 pairs contributed in 2023.  Shoe donations for 2024 are being accepted January 8 through March 15.

 

Baldwin County students will once again be rewarded for collecting the highest number of shoes with money for their schools’ new P.E. equipment. Baldwin Bone & Joint will award cash prizes to P.E. programs to the top three Baldwin County Public Schools who donate the most shoes. In addition, the class that brings in the most shoes overall will receive a Chick-fil-a party and the teacher will be awarded a cash prize provided by City Hope Church.
