I got an email last night requesting sneakers. Yup, it has come to my attention that a fellow Mainer is adopting her new daughter from Ethiopia. She is currently looking to bring sneakers (used is fine) to kids in the orphanage when she heads down later this year.
They are looking for specifically:
Size nine mens or size two youth.
If you’d like to donate, just drive by my house and fling ‘em on the porch. I’ll gather them up, box ‘em, and get them ready to go.
Thanks!
PS- You don’t even need to slow down since the porch is huge, though the paper guy can’t seem to hit it unless the sun is out. Do your best.
(HAH! MY CONTACT WAS MISTAKEN, THAT’S ALL SNEAKERS FROM SIZE 2 Youth TO SIZE 9 MENS!)

You are so awesomely awesome. However- we are collecting ALL sneakers in good condition sized from YOUTH 2 through Men’s 9. ALL of THEM. Thank you so much for your help, Julie!
Shannon wrote it to me like that, simply classic. I fixed it.
I thought it was funny that she only wanted two sizes.
Sorry for the confusion.
