Somos Numa has announced a project that will see the Brazilian company sell shoes to help street dogs. The Brazilian athletic shoe brand said that it intends to donate the money from the sale of 160 pairs of its recycled cotton, recycled PET and recovered rubber tennis shoes to Patas Dadas, a Brazilian charity that rescues street dogs, based in Porto Alegre. More specifically, the money is meant to build up a fund that will help pay unexpected veterinary bills for sick or injured dogs that the charity takes in.
