"We hope a new pair of shoes can be a bright spot for these brave people during these unprecedented times. Merrell thanks them for their work and service to our community." Further, in response to the rapidly increasing need for emergency financial aid for thousands of footwear industry families affected by the coronavirus pandemic, several of Wolverine Worldwide's brands have partnered with the Two Ten Footwear Foundation to establish the "COVID-19 Share Your Shoes Campaign." This initiative was led by Hush Puppies and quickly joined by Sperry, Keds, HYTEST, and Bates Footwear. Collectively, these brands have donated more than 13,000 pairs of shoes, which will be converted into cash and distributed to footwear industry families in need. Two Ten provides emergency financial assistance and access to counseling services and community resources to footwear employees facing difficult times.
