With ShoeBox Recycling bins placed throughout the school students are encouraged to responsibly discard of their gently used shoes. This life lesson is critical in the Loesche Learners are Leaders mantra. ShoeBox Recycling is aligned with raising awareness and improving education at all levels about the need to participate regularly in shoe recycling, where all of the secondhand goods collected are destined for reuse.
“We are thrilled to become a part of a program that encourages Loesche Learners to be Leaders not just at school, but to have a global impact through the new shoe recycling program and in a small way, touching the lives of others, which is a concept we enforce daily at Loesche,” said Victoria Velazquez, Principal of Loesche Elementary. ?The funds raised from this program will be used towards purchasing additional SMART boards and technology for the school. We are working hard to use innovative solutions in our classrooms that open the world of possibilities to our learners,? continued Velazquez.

REUSE, with all of the shoes collected destined for reuse by those in need of affordable footwear.

“Shoe recycling needs to become as familiar to us all and as easy to perform as bottle, can, and paper recycling,? said Lisa Pomerantz, Queen of Sole at ShoeBox Recycling. ?Our collaboration with Loesche Elementary School is a great way to get this important message out. Our shoes can live on and help people across the world while we inspire a new generation to act responsibly.?
