Payless Cares
Just in time for the holiday season, Payless ShoeSource launched an international children’s shoe-giving program, Payless GivesTM Shoes 4 Kids, and selected Orangeburg Area Boys & Girls Club as one of its charity partners. A group of children served by Orangeburg Area Boys & Girls Club participated in a shoe-shopping trip at the Payless ShoeSource store here in Orangeburg. The children enjoyed shopping for and selecting their own pair of free new shoes. Payless provided over 50 pair of shoes.
