Shop collects old Crocs for charity

Foothills Shoes is urging people to bring their old Crocs to the shop in the Pioneer Shopping Centre in Yuma County as it is making an effort to encourage recycling of the shoes, it has emerged.

People who have a pair of crocs they no longer use can bring them to the shop located on Fortuna Road from Monday to Saturdays between 9.30 am and 5.30 pm, according to the Yuma Sun.

The store is taking part in a drive to collect old crocs for SolesUnited.org and the company then crushes the shoes and creates new ones which are distributed to people around the world who need shoes, the news provider has reported.
