Bring your extra shoes tonight!

Take a look in your closet. Dig deep. See any shoes that you no longer wear? Dig them out and bring them to Si Melby Hall tonight at the Augsburg-St. Olaf volleyball match (7 p.m. on Wednesday).

The Auggies are hosting "American Soles for Brazilian Souls" night, and if you bring a pair of used tennis shoes to the match to donate to the cause, you get into the match for free (yes, Augsburg students, faculty and staff already get in free with ID, but bring some shoes anyway!).


You can read more about the shoe collection effort here. The shoes are going to be sent to underprivileged children in Brazil, many of the same children helped by our players during a clinic that the Augsburg volleyball team held on their trip to Brazil in May.
