Roni’s Dance Company Shoe Drive

Roni’s Dance Company is conducting a shoe drive fundraiser from April 1-May 31 to raise funds for Sch

Anyone can help by donating gently worn, used and new shoes at Roni’s Dance studio. All donated shoes will then be redistributed throughout the Funds2Orgs network of micro-enterprise (small business) partners. Funds2Orgs works with micro-entrepreneurs in helping them create, maintain and grow small businesses in developing countries where economic opportunity and jobs are limited. Proceeds from th

e sales of the shoes collected in shoe drive fundraisers are used to feed, clothe and house their families. One budding entrepreneur in Haiti even earned enough to send to her son to law school. By donating gently worn, used and new shoes to the RDC shoe drive with Funds2Org the shoes will be given a second chance and make a difference in people’s lives around the world.

Our drive has come to an end! Funds2Orgs picked up all of our shoes yesterday! We had collected 2,942 pairs of shoes to be sent overseas to help micro entrepreneurs support their families in countries unlike ours. Thanks to all of those who donated and helped our endeavors! It’s greatly appreciated!

Thank you to these Spotlight Dance Booster moms who participated in this group effort: Samantha Getz, Dianna Petty, Natalie Hanson, Amy Ward, Spring Knue, Nancy Gould, Jodi Conner, Amy Shackelford, Marisa Turner, Susan Riehle, and Karrie Reuter. Also shout out to Randy Kiel who came and sorted, tied and bagged shoes multiple times with us!

A HUGE thank you to all of our local businesses who supported us by setting up a drop off location: Roni's Dance, Amack's Well Community Coffee House, Second Time Around, Gillman Home Center, Community United Methodist Church and The Forge.

Lastly, we had a competition going on for the top three dancers who personally collected the most shoes! We have our final standings!
1. Baylee Buckhave- 1160 pairs
2. Molly Turner- 530 pairs
3. Stella Petty- 213 pairs

Congratulations girls! Your gifts were generously donated by the following businesses and people: Roni Banfield, Second Time Around, Alyssa Beckmann Buckhave, THE WEB Extreme Entertainment, Angela Brown with Ang Michelle Custom Designs, and Big Four Cafe.

So many were involved in making this happen including friends and churches and community. I can’t name you all because so many of you were generous with your time and efforts to support our team! We were also lucky to have Marty lend us a space to store these shoes for months, thank you so much!

Thanks again Funds2Orgs and everyone out there! My heart is full ❤️

I challenge 40 of you to get together 25 pairs of old, worn shoes and donate them this week!!! If you are heading to Roni's Dance recital this Sunday, bring them there and get something special in return or stop them off at any participating location!

Our goal is 2,500 pairs of shoes by May 31st in order to qualify for our drive!

Thanks to everyone who has already donated to support our girls and people around the globe. Your hearts are generous, giving and loving and we appreciate you!

We didn’t get to count yesterday because we had a big meeting/discussion about our upcoming dance Recital!

Good news is, we will be accepting shoes at the recital! For every pair of shoes brought recital day, you will receive a free ticket for our basket raffle! We’ve been getting some amazing donations from local and small businesses and people! We can’t wait to start sharing these with you! More info will be shared on this soon as we sort the details!

But please, don’t let that stop you from dropping off at any current location now. We have a total of 2,500 pairs of shoes to collect in order to qualify and earn money for our dance scholarships. We need all the help (and shoes) you can give!

Today is shoe counting day! Can’t wait to update everyone on where we are! Can we be half way there yet?
