“Everything is expensive right now so sadly shoes are the last on the priority list for parents. We continue to see shoes being too tight or the toe coming out of their old shoes or wearing not well-made shoes. Thankfully with this program, we can give them quality shoes.”
School counselor, Waycross, GA
“I noticed a second grade boy was limping. I asked him why and he said that his shoes were too tight and they hurt. He was in shoes that were two sizes too small. When he put his new shoes on he jumped and ran down the hallway and back and had the biggest smile on his face. He gave me a hug and said that he was happy that his feet didn't hurt anymore!”

“Ms. G., now I can run faster because I not only have new shoes, but I have the fastest shoes ever.”
