The vast majority of shoes we give out to children each year are purchased using monetary donations from supporters like you. Whether you can give your time to volunteer, lend your expertise to help guide a committee (or even the board), or simply make a financial donation, we are incredibly grateful for each and every giving gesture. Together we can empower students to put their best foot forward.
