My staff with the Project “Donate A Shoe” placed their booth at the Run For Life: 3K & 5K Fun Run sponsored by BF Homes this morning. They are happy to report that the remaining seven (7) shoes that were donated, from the fourteen (14) shoes collected since we launched this project, were all distributed to runners who exchanged their “old, worn-out & tattered shoes”
The following runners received their new shoes from the donated shoes:
1) Jhun Bautista
2) Zoren Pama
3) Antero Ocariza
4) Danilo Sanchez
5) Riza Reyes
6) Juan Jose
7) Rodrigo Sale
Last Sunday, instead of six shoes that were given to the less-fortunate ones, we had given seven and we omitted the name of John Robert Evidor as one of the recipients.
Total of donated shoes distributed to other runners up to the present—14 pairs of running shoes.
My staff were able to take pictures of the recipients and their “old & worn-out shoes”.
Unfortunately, my staff were not able to collect any shoe donation in this morning’s road race in Paranaque.
To all the donors, thanks again! You made a lot of our runners happy today!
The Project “Donate A Shoe” booth will be available at the On Your Mark Road Race at The Fort this Sunday. The “One” White Wristband will still be available for distribution to the donors.

I’m just curious. How do you choose the donnees? 🙂

eric, the runners would come to the booth with their “old shoes on their feet” after finishing the race. maj turno & capt espejo, both seasoned/elite runners should know and would determine who are these runners who are in need of better shoes.

Can you send me pictures that I can use, like the old shoes you donated, the new shoes, the donees, donors. Maybe I can play around with them and make a brochure for you 🙂
