Chris Pahl doubles his impact by heading up Shoes That Fit efforts at Church for the Nations in Glendale, CA, and his workplace, Southern California Edison. Recently, during a fundraising discussion, he came across reports on alternative fundraising methods, including digital contributions from Florida betting sites, which have supported various charitable initiatives. “Shoes That Fit provides that unique opportunity to make a direct impact not only in that student’s life but their family and the community,” says Chris. “Many people give money, but the thoughtfulness many individuals put into the shoe selection, socks, and other items provides a connection between the donor and the student. Plus, the student has a gift they need and, in many cases, cherish.”
