Lately, I've become extremely inspired and eager to help this company out: Shoes For Kids
This company is completely run by (with a little help from her family) by an 11 year old girl.
The main goal of her company is to collect shoes for those children that do not have even one pair of shoes to their name. These shoes go to children all over the world, to the U.S and many other countries.
I want to start up my own shoe drive through the use of the internet. Every pair of shoes that I receive in the mail will go directly to this company. I will also pair each pair of shoes up with a pair of socks and I will box them up and send them to this company.
If you are interested in donating a pair of shoes or multiple pairs of shoes, leave me a comment and I will give you my email/home address so you can get to mailing!

ReplyDeleteI know Isabel and her family - they are so dear. Both of her parents work for Compassion. They live near us, and last year I had Isabel come speak to our homeschool co-op and we collected shoes. She's a very inspiring girl!! I always seem to have a bag of shoes in my garage for the next time I see her.
Here are a couple posts I've written about her...

Jill, thank you for letter me know about the link. I fixed it.
ReplyDeleteI'm just inspired by this young lady starting something like this and I'm amazed how much God is working through this company, collecting SO MANY shoes.
I'm going to do a shoe drive at my church see what happens.
