Woman buys out Payless store to donate shoes to Nebraska flooding victims
Addy Tritt had an idea while browsing in a Payless shoe store that was closing and selling its remaining shoes for $1.
“The sales associate called her manager and I literally sat on the floor in Payless going back and forth between phone calls and emails trying to [negotiate] for these shoes,” she said. “I finally got them all for around $100.” “We were all amazed,” Emily Bennigsdorf, president of the Sigma Alpha chapter at Fort Hays State, said of Tritt’s donation. “These families will have to build from the ground up so just being able to give them anything is a huge gift in itself.”
