The Whitehall Class of 2029 is hosting a community shoe drive aimed at collecting gently worn, used, and new shoes to benefit those in need while supporting a class fundraising goal.

Community members are encouraged to donate shoes of all sizes and styles. Donations can be dropped off at Whitehall Elementary School or Whitehall Jr.-Sr. High School. The final day to contribute is Thursday, April 30.

The Class of 2029 has set a goal of collecting 500 pairs of shoes through the drive. Organizers note that this effort not only supports their class, but also gives shoes a second life by helping others in the community and beyond.

For those unable to drop off donations, pickup arrangements can be made by contacting a member of the Class of 2029.
