We currently have 55 pairs of shoes for our shoe drive!!! Isn't that exciting?! And we are going to go help deliver shoes with Shoes 4 the Shoeless on Friday, September 6 at an elementary school in east Dayton. I've been told there will be 30 active duty military from Wright Pat Air Force Base dressed in uniform, volunteering with this delivery. How cool is that?? We would desperately like to get closer to our goal of 100 shoes by that Friday. If you haven't donated some new shoes yet and would still like to help us reach our goal, please let me know ASAP!! I will be collecting shoes up until that day.
Remember these need to be school age sizes (10youth- adult sizes). They also need to be new and they need to be athletic shoes- (so no toddler shoes or sandals). We did receive a few pairs of toddler shoes and sandals and we will make sure those go to a good home as well.
Thank you to all who have donated so far! This will be the first time for many children to get a new pair of shoes, and that fit correctly. You will be making a huge difference in a child's life!!
Thanks again and stay tuned for some pictures and more updates!
Up and awaayyyy!!!!!
