Ariat International, Inc. is proud to announce their donation of footwear to Soles4Souls as part of the company’s charitable outreach program. Soles4Souls is a nonprofit organization that facilitates the donation of shoes to aid those affected by natural disasters worldwide such as Hurricane Katrina, the Peru earthquake and the tsunami in Southeast Asia.
Soles4Souls started with a tragic image that flashed across the television screen of Soles4Souls founder, Wayne Elsey - a single shoe lying on a desolate beach in the wake of the devastating Southeast Asian tsunami. This haunting vision prompted Elsey to ask, “What can I do to help?”. With that one question, Soles4Soul was born with a simple mission: To impact as many lives as possible with the gift of shoes. Since January 2005, Soles4Souls has distributed more than three million pairs of shoes, in forty countries, on five continents.
“Ariat is proud to partner with Soles4Souls, an organization that significantly impacts the lives of those in need on an international level,” said Beth Cross, President and CEO of Ariat International. “We hope that our support of Soles4Souls will motivate our colleagues in the footwear industry and more specifically the equestrian footwear industry, to join Soles4Souls in improving the lives of others ‘one pair at a time’”.
