Zach highlights the impact of shoe waste on the environment and how GotSneakers has helped to reduce this waste and also provides shoes for many across the globe. Zach is inspiring and provides a crucial student-centered point of view as to how we can all make a difference toward sustainability.
From Zach: Our current sneaker drive will be at Foster City Elementary School from April 4-27, 2023. Please drop off your closed-toed shoes, in any condition, in our Got Sneaker? bins. All donations of shoes help support the sneaker drive and raise money to benefit all students in our district!"

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
