The UHD Staff Council will host a "Soles4Souls" shoe drive to help those in need of footwear.

Soles4Souls is a nonprofit global enterprise committed to fighting poverty through the collection and distribution of shoes and clothing. More than 300 million children around the world have poor footwear or none at all. This exposes children to soil-transmitted parasites and diseases and can prevent children from going to school.

The shoe drive will take place Monday, Oct. 26 - Monday, Nov. 30. Drop off your gently used or new shoes at the following locations:

Commerce Street Building

• Criminal Justice Training Center (C112)
• First Floor Lobby, next to the Security Officer's Station

Shea Street Building

• First Floor Lobby, next to the Security Officer's Station

Student Life Center

• Front Entrance

One Main Building

• Student Activities and Events (S204) Front Entrance
• Shipping, Receiving & Mailroom (N101)
