I work for a company that has sample shoes (only one). I'm trying to find an organization that we could donate these to, people with injuries and only have one foot, amputees. Does anyone know of such an organization?

This one seems to be most often mentioned: www.oddshoe.org/
or check here: www.amputee-coalition.org/
I saw Heather Mills (Paul McCartney's ex wife) on a show talking about all the amputees in haiti after the earthquake and she is involved with a non profit for prosthetics. maybe google her name and see if a non profit comes up.. I am sure the need for odd shoes would be mentioned.
What about Wounded Warriors, www.woundedwarriorproject.org/
If they can't use them, they will probably know who can.
You can also donate them to nose, www.oddshoe.org, a great service for people for whatever reason only need one shoe or have mismatched feet.
I am an amputee of the right leg. When I buy a pair of shoes I have a whole shelf of right shoes size 6-61/12. Whole sone one can use then . Ann
If you find out let me know. I have the same problem. Just discovered Jos shoes website which might help.
I am a left leg amputee and I wear size 6- 6 1/2. I have tons of left shoes. Maybe we can pair up and send each other shoes.
I have a brace I wear on one foot which makes me buy two sizes. I have two shoes (unmatched) one from left and a different size from right foot. Who could I donate to

I have some single left or right shoes that are samples. In Melbourne, where can I send them?

Google soles4souls also ask at your local VA hospital or VFW
Our V.A. hospital will not take new, unworn, mens sneakers. Any idea where I can donate them ? My husband wears two different sizes- hence I have two single New Balance.
