PCD-DC Shoe Drive for Haiti
We at PCD-DC are deeply saddened by the recent earthquake in Haiti, which has caused extraordinary suffering. PCD-DC is helping to collect shoes for shipment to the island. Anyone who has footwear of any kind - men's, women's or children's; new or in very good condition - please drop them off during any of PCD-DC's scheduled events (see Calendar) by the last day of February. It may be a small gesture, but it is a way we can directly help these people who so desperately need it.
