Most people have extra sneakers in their closets they would like to donate rather than throw away. By doing so, we raise money for The Ocean Cleanup and help the environment. It’s a win–win for all!”

— Elliot Cooper, Founder of Coops Kicks

BROOKLYN, NY, USA, April 20, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Coops Kicks is holding an athletic shoe drive fundraiser on June 15, 2021, to raise money for The Ocean Cleanup. Coops Kicks will earn funds based on the total quantity of gently worn, used, and new sneakers collected. Got Sneakers, a social enterprise, will issue funds in compensation for the collected sneakers. Anyone can help by simply donating gently worn, used, and new sneakers. Those funds will benefit The Ocean Cleanup, a nonprofit engineering environmental organization based in the Netherlands, that develops technology to extract plastic pollution from the oceans and intercept it in rivers before it can reach the ocean.

Coops Kicks is partnering with GotSneakers in a unique fundraising program that asks communities to reach into their closets, not their pockets! The sneaker recycling program helps keeps sneakers out of landfills, which has harmful effects on our environment and helps organizations raise much-needed funds. The program is truly a win–win!"

“We are excited about our sneaker drive fundraiser,” said Elliot Cooper of Coops Kicks. “We know that most people have extra sneakers in their closets they would like to donate rather than throw away. By doing so, we raise money for The Ocean Cleanup and help the environment. It’s a win–win for everyone!”
