Traub Law Office Helping Soles4Souls Wear Out Poverty

Andrew Traub, founding partner of the Traub Law Office, P.C., spearheads holiday shoe donation drive for Soles4Souls.

Attorney Andrew Traub is proud to announce the Traub Law Office is hosting a holiday shoe donation drive for Soles4Souls, a nonprofit global social enterprise committed to fighting poverty through the collection and distribution of shoes and clothing. New or gently worn pairs of shoes can be dropped off at the Traub Law Office, 8701 Shoal Creek Blvd., Suite 401, Austin, TX 78757.

“I strongly encourage everyone in the community to drop by our office and give a pair of shoes to help a person in need this holiday season,” said Traub. “It’s exciting to be able to give back to the local community and help the underprivileged.”

Soles4Souls aims is to eradicate extreme poverty by 2050. Children every day are prevented from attending school and adults are unable to work as walking becomes unbearable, which perpetuates the cycle of poverty. To date, Soles4Souls has collected and distributed more than 26 million pairs of shoes to those in need in 127 countries around the world and all 50 states in the U.S.

“Every pair of donated shoes counts, and can provide relief today so thousands can succeed tomorrow,” concluded Traub, whose charity work extends to local schools, synagogues and clients in need, and who bakes and gives cookies out to people working on Christmas like firefighters, police departments, etc. “Every person in the world should have at least one good pair of shoes, which is one of life’s most basic necessities, and you can help make that happen.”
