Shoes For Crews® Supports Small Business Community with Charitable Contribution

The strategic initiative will provide relief to restaurants and their employees while fighting to end hunger and support the small business community.

 

BOCA RATON, Florida (October 19, 2021) -- Shoes For Crews®, the global leader in slip-resistant footwear, announced a new initiative to support the small business community, create demand for restaurant businesses and feed those in need through its new Small Business Program.

For each new small business account opened, Shoes For Crews will donate free meals—prepared by a local small business restaurant—for people in need through World Central Kitchen (WCK). In addition, Shoes For Crews will provide footwear to the World Central Kitchen team. Each pair of shoes will be donated to WCK team members based on their environments to ensure proper comfort, durability and protection.

Said Don Watros, President and Chief Executive Officer of Shoes For Crews®, “The past year has taught us all the importance of teamwork and solidarity. We are excited for the opportunity to support the vision of World Central Kitchen and help strengthen local communities in these challenging times. Our goal is to provide relief to businesses and individuals who have been impacted by life’s often unpredictable circumstances.”
