21st Annual Many More Miles Shoe Drive – Baldwin Bone & Joint Partners With City Hope Church, Baldwin County Public Schools, St. Michael Catholic High School & Bayshore Christian School

December 5, 2024

Community Outreach Campaign Kickoff – January 8, 2025

DAPHNE, ALA. (Dec. 4, 2024) – Gently worn shoes from schoolchildren, runners and fitness enthusiasts in Baldwin County are set to find a second life through the 21st Annual Many More Miles Campaign.

Organized by Baldwin Bone & Joint, P.C., this community outreach initiative will launch on Jan. 8, 2025 and run through March 14. The campaign collects gently used footwear to support individuals and families in need locally.

Baldwin Bone & Joint’s offices in Daphne, Spanish Fort and Foley will serve as primary drop-off locations, making it easy for local residents to participate. Shoes donated at these sites will benefit a wide range of local organizations, including Empowering People, McKemie Place, Waterfront Rescue Mission, the Salvation Army, Baldwin County Foster Parents Association, Fostering Together Gulf Coast, Baldwin Family Village, City Hope Homeless Ministry, The Dream Center and local homeless communities. Additionally, shoes will be distributed to clothing closets in schools across Baldwin County to assist students in need.

Last year’s campaign set a record with more than 5,000 pairs of shoes collected, and organizers hope to surpass that milestone this year. The initiative continues to expand, with this year’s partners including Baldwin County Public Schools and City Hope Church, along with new additions, St. Michael Catholic High School and Bayshore Christian School. Local participating drop-off sites include White-Spunner Realty, McCoys Outdoors, and USA Recreation Center.

To encourage participation, Baldwin Bone & Joint will award cash prizes to the top three schools collecting the most shoes, with $500 for first place, $300 for second, and $200 for third. Community members are encouraged to clean out their closets and drop off their gently used shoes (tied together) at any of the Baldwin Bone & Joint locations in Daphne, Spanish Fort, or Foley.
