Was charity and working for a social cause one of your new year resolutions in 2010, but you never got around doing it? Well, you have not run out of time in that case as many charities are still collecting goods. Worldly soles is a charity that collects shoes and ships them to Haiti, Nepal and Africa where they are much needed.

Worldly souls is an Australian Initiative started by students of TAFE and Volker Euler, the North Sydney College Association Executive Officer is the co-ordinator. It was started in 2010 with an aim of collecting more than 100,000 shoes in the year. With a large number of collection points across the city and a facebook group this initiative has got very popular in a short time. Worldly Soles has worked with more than 50 colleges across NSW to collect shoes from the community.

The charity asks for clean, usable shoes of all sizes and shapes. If you have spare shoes lying in your cupboard or unwanted pre-loved shoes then it's a great idea to donate it to them so that someone who really needs the shoes can make use of it.

Some of the collection points in Sydney are listed below.

Redfern Neighbourhood Service Centre, 158 Redfern Street Redfern
