Market-Leading Manufacturer of Premium Arch Supports Honors Community Change-Makers During Teacher Appreciation Week SAN DIEGO, Calif. – The Good Feet Store, recognized nationally as the market-leading manufacturer and retailer of premium, personally-fitted arch supports, announced today the launch of its first nationwide initiative, Feet for Thought. Aiming to recognize and celebrate individuals who have made a significant impact in their communities, Feet for Thought kicks off on May 6, the start of National Teacher Appreciation Week, and concludes at the end of the month. From dedicated educators to compassionate coaches and selfless volunteers, these unsung heroes can be nominated to win their own personalized Good Feet Arch Support System, which is clinically proven to provide significant pain relief in only 4 weeks*. “We are thrilled to launch Feet for Thought. This campaign comes from the heart and underscores our commitment to taking care of those who take care of us,” said Doug Zarkin, Chief Brand Officer of Good Feet Holdings. “These individuals are often overlooked in the day-to-day, yet they play an invaluable role in shaping the future generation and our communities. This is our way of expressing gratitude for their dedication by helping to improve the quality of their lives – two feet at a time.” Based on recent studies, teachers spend up to 70% of their working day standing or walking. Standing for hours at a time can lead to pain and discomfort, hindering the enjoyment and sense of fulfillment that professionals may get from their roles in the education system. The Good Feet Store hopes to bring educational professionals more day-to-day comfort and a better quality of life through this effort – it is not just about recognizing their hard work, but about caring for those who care about others and providing tangible support to improve their daily lives. The Good Feet Store invites individuals to nominate educators, mentors and other impactful figures in the education field who have made a difference in their communities. To participate, simply visit goodfeet.com/feetforthought to submit a nomination. The contest launches May 6, the start of Teacher Appreciation Week, and runs through May 31, 2024. There may be one winner for each participating market, and once selected, each winner will receive their own personalized arch support system from The Good Feet Store. For more than 30 years, The Good Feet Store has been an innovator in foot health and wellness — and it starts with Good Feet Arch Supports.
