Campaign: Donate Your Used Sneakers to Those in Need
In 2012, some collectors, members of the group "Sneakerheads Brasil", had the idea to gather some pairs of sneakers that they no longer used and take them for donation.
The idea has been evolving year after year, attracting more collectors to participate in this initiative.
In 2014, the group gathered to separate and distribute several pairs of sneakers to the homeless in downtown São Paulo, along with some snacks to complement the donation. And this year, we are calling everyone to participate as well, to help those who need it more than we do.
Check below the photos from last year's distribution and information about the donation collection centers.
