(KNSI) – CentraCare Health has been given some environmentally friendly footwear to help keep its frontline workers on their toes.
The Minnesota Soybean Research and Promotion Council has donated 120 pairs of Skechers soy-based GO shoes to St. Cloud Hospital’s Intensive Care Unit. “It means a lot to be recognized for the hard work and sacrifices our team made during the pandemic. To be recognized like this – we really appreciate it,” said Michelle Gamble, director of Intensive Care.
The hospital is among dozens across the state getting the shoes from the Minnesota Soybean Research and Promotion Council’s Stepping Up campaign. The council has donated three-thousand pairs of soy-based shoes to healthcare workers across Minnesota. Officials with the council say the shoes are part of an environmentally friendly investment from the soybean check-off.
