Lenten Shoe Drive 2025

St. Peter’s will be collecting new men’s athletic shoes as well as socks and footcare products for our annual Lenten shoe drive. Footcare products includes Goldbond foot powder, lotion, and toenail clippers. The drive supports the foot clinic offered by Trinity Episcopal Church in the Central West End which serves the unhoused population who walk many miles every day. Our goal is to collect 120 pairs of shoes. There will be an opportunity to volunteer at the clinic on Wednesday, April 16.

What to Donate:

• New men's athletic shoes, sizes 9-12
• Thick men's socks
• Goldbond foot powder & foot cream
• Toenail clippers

You can also donate to the shoe drive by purchasing items from our Amazon Wish List which will be delivered directly to the church!
