The  non-profit organization will then send the apparel to the children of  Haiti. The Caribbean nation was ravaged by a devastating earthquake last  year. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe kids in Haiti still need our help,\u201d Zio Sport President and  Co-founder, Ragan Melton said. \u201cThese kids have nothing. Clothes4Souls  will ensure that the children of Haiti receive much-needed clothing.  Clothes4Souls focuses on children, just like we do here at Zio Sport.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Zio Sport\u2019s donation included Zio Sport shirts, shorts and pullovers. The donation totaled nearly $38,000. <\/p>\n<p>Clothes4Souls gives free clothing to those in need in the United  States and around the world. Clothes4Souls works with manufacturers,  designers and retailers to donate unused inventory instead of destroying  it. <\/p>\n<p>Clothes4Souls is a division of Soles4Souls, which collects new and  gently-worn footwear for people in need. Since 2005, Soles4Souls has  distributed more than 10 million pairs of shoes to people in 125  countries, including the United States. <\/p>\n<p>About Zio Sport: <br \/>Nothing says, \u201cget out and play\u201d like Zio Sport. The Austin,  Texas-based company outfits kids around the country with high-quality,  active wear for ages 4-14. At Zio Sport, it\u2019s all about the kids. In  fact, Zio Sport consults with children in the color, fabric and style of  all their clothing. This family-owned company encourages a healthy  lifestyle with the simple idea that kids who are comfortable, keep  playing longer. Zio Sport started when a grandmother and two mothers  felt there was a void in high-quality, stylish sportswear for children.  Just months later, the three developed their own line of children\u2019s  active wear. Now Zio Sport is available online and in select retail  stores nationwide.
