We always talk about how eNZees Foot Soother helps people on their feet all day: preventing blisters, softening calluses, and providing a soft cushion for hammertoes. But did you know eNZees also helps people get back on their feet? All Multi-Activity Packs, Mini 5-Packs, and Minis are packaged and fulfilled by SHALOM Denver, a nonprofit that trains and employs people with intellectual developmental disabilities and those in the welfare-to-work program.

Originally known as The Utility Workshop of Denver, SHALOM Denver helped Holocaust survivors who had recently relocated to Denver with rehabilitation and vocational training. Today, SHALOM Denver provides Prevocational Employment Training, Supported Employment, and Mentorship Services to those who need a helping hand.

I was immediately intrigued by SHALOM Denver’s mission and have since visited their facility several times. SHALOM Denver offers competitive pricing for their services, but, to me, it’s just as important to see how they are helping improve lives within the Denver community.

Did you know each eNZees original, mini, and 5-pack is measured, weighed, and packaged by human hands, and not by assembly lines and machines? eNZees Foot Soother® works with SHALOM Denver, a nonprofit organization that trains and employs adults with intellectual and development disabilities, the visually impared, and with people transitioning from welfare to work. 

Jill discovered SHALOM Denver while attending the summer Outdoor Retailer in Utah. Intrigued by the nonprofit's mission, Jill immediately inquired about pairing up with them to package eNZees. 

SHALOM Denver, which recently celebrated its 60th anniversary, is part of the Jewish Family Service, a nonsectarian nonprofit founded in 1872. The organization also provides mental health services, support to senior citizens, and a Family Safety Net Program to help prevent homelessness. SHALOM Denver offers packaging, printing, small parts assembly, handwork and mailing needs. 

If you needed another reason to feel good about the eNZees on your feet, this is it!
