NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Soles4Souls, the international shoe charity announced that PromiseCare Pharmacy will donate a portion of their proceeds from orders to Soles4Souls, to help provide shoes for the charity's relief efforts following the devastating 9.0 magnitude earthquake that rocked Japan on March 9, 2011.

"Partner with Soles4Souls and PromiseCare Pharmacy; call 877-323-9803 for your prescriptions, medical supplies, and health and wellness information," said Readus C. Smith, III, Chairman and CEO of PromiseCare Pharmacy. "I Promise is more than a guarantee; it's the way we do business every day for you, Soles4Souls, and now for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami earlier this month."

Soles4Souls has partnered with other organizations on the ground in Japan to transport and distribute the aid needed as the devastation from the earthquake continues to unfold. Since the charities inception after the Asian Tsunami in 2004, the shoe charity has continued to respond to natural disasters like the one in Japan with footwear that protect victims against foot-borne diseases.

"We are grateful to our partners who are stepping up to make an impact in Japan," said Wayne Elsey, Founder and CEO of Soles4Souls. "We deeply appreciate the support of PromiseCare Pharmacy in helping us provide shoes to survivors."
