Fila Online, which operates the U.S. e-commerce site for the 102 year
old sportstyle brand Fila., announced an exclusive partnership this
holiday season with Soles4Souls, the global not-for-profit institution
dedicated to fighting the devastating impact and perpetuation of poverty
through the distribution of shoes and clothing.
#SolePurpose
will begin November 15, 2013 and run through December 31, 2013.
Customers will have the opportunity at checkout to contribute to those
in need when purchasing full price items online. Each shopper that
donates to the Soles4Souls charity will receive a discount in accordance
with the amount donated. 100% of each shopper’s donation goes straight
to the Soles4Souls charity.
“Everyone wants to do something to
help others during the holidays, but get caught up in the business of
the holiday season, and then, all of a sudden, it’s December 31st and we
all missed our chance,” said Jon Epstein, President, FILA USA. “This
program makes it fun, fast and easy to shop FILA and support people who
need it most.”
“Our #solepurpose during this holiday season is
to collect as much money as possible for a great cause that is close to
our business and our hearts,” said Jennifer O. Estabrook, Executive
Vice-President, FILA USA. “In addition to the discounts we will offer,
we are excited to run a contest across our social platforms to promote
awareness of the great work SOULS4SOLES does every day. People will be
asked to either send in a creative image of their favorite FILA® SOLES,
or a picture of their SOULS, i.e. a photo of them doing volunteer work
in their communities, with their schools or on their own volition. The
winner with the best submission will receive a $1000 gift card to
Fila.com.”
