Pasco County’s Shoe Drive 5K | Tampa News

Pasco County just kicked off its first “Two Good Soles 5K” — a fun run that’s turning fitness into footwear for kids in need. Every dollar raised goes straight to buying new shoes and socks for students starting school, building confidence one pair at a time. Over the past 11 years, this United Way-backed drive has already gifted 24,000 shoes and 58,000 socks — now they’re targeting sizes 9 and up to help older kids too. Social workers will distribute these essentials to families facing hardship, from hurricanes to everyday struggles. Final race stats are pending, but the goal? Get every kid ready for school by October’s end — blending community spirit with real-world impact. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
