Claremont Vinnies gets generous donation from The Athlete's Foot

Donations such as this makes a meaningful difference in the local community by providing local families with the opportunity to buy quality, affordable footwear for their children.

Claremont Vinnies Store Manager Toby Willis said the donation of several boxes of brand-new shoes, which comprise a variety of brands suitable for sport, everyday wear or school, would be put to good use immediately. 

“These shoes will make a real difference for local kids,” he said.

“We’re so grateful to Michelle at The Athletes Foot and her team for their generosity, and we’re proud to have such strong community connections here in Claremont.”

The Athlete’s Foot Claremont Quarter store owner Michelle Docherty said the team was proud to support the important work done by Vinnies. 

“We’re committed to helping every child put their best foot forward, literally,” she said. 

“By donating these shoes, we hope to make life a little easier for families and to show that small acts of kindness can have a big impact.”

Vinnies WA CEO Ann Curran said it was uplifting to see a local business giving back to its community.

“Support from local businesses like The Athlete’s Foot not only provides essential items for families doing it tough, but also showcases the importance of community connection, which is at the heart of what Vinnies does,” she said.

“Claremont Vinnies and The Athlete’s Foot encourage the community to continue supporting local charities that give back to those in need, whether it is through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word about the work being done.”
