2026 Campaign Concludes with Impactful Shoe Distribution Event

Daphne, AL (April 28, 2026) – Hundreds of residents across Baldwin and Mobile Counties participated in Baldwin Bone & Joint’s 22nd Annual Many More Miles Campaign by donating gently used shoes. This collective effort resulted in approximately 5,000 pairs of shoes being gathered and prepared for redistribution to those in need. Of the total shoes collected, 2,000 pairs were donated through partnering BCBE and local schools, demonstrating strong community engagement from students and their families. The remaining 3,000 pairs came from a variety of sources, including Baldwin Bone & Joint physicians, employees and patients, and members of the surrounding communities through drop-off sites at the Spanish Fort, Daphne, and Foley YMCA locations, City Hope Church, University of South Alabama Student Recreation Center, White-Spunner Realty, and McCoy Outdoor Company in Mobile. These collection points played a crucial role in facilitating the campaign’s outreach and enabling broad participation.
