Shoes for Houston-how you can help.

Houston and areas of southeastern Texas have experienced unprecedented flooding and damage from Hurricane Harvey, which made landfall as a Category 4 storm on the state’s Gulf Coast on Friday, August 25. The loss of property and sheer devastation that several hundred thousand people are experiencing is catastrophic — and we want your help in bringing much-needed aid to them. 

Glad you asked! Fleet Feet Sports stores all over the country are collecting new or gently-used shoes and new pairs of socks to donate to victims of the storm. To streamline organizational efforts, please do the following prior to dropping off your donation: 

• Tie the shoes in pairs with their laces
• Mark on the back heels the gender and size of the shoes — for example: M12 (Men's Size 12), W9 (Women's Size 9)
• Pair socks together

All Fleet Feet Sports locations are accepting donation including Folsom & Roseville.

Here’s a list of non-profit organizations that are underway in raising funds to provide both immediate relief as well as help with long-term recovery efforts:
