Christmas Shoe Project

My family was able to purchase 10 pairs of brand new shoes for only $36! Shoes for children who live in extremely dirty places, and are in desperate need of them!

My kids and I heard about the "Christmas Shoe Project" on a program called Life Today. When my daughter saw the children's feet and the terrible pain they endure, she wanted to give! The shoes help them from getting horrible infections that can cause very serious problems. After about a month of my daughter saving any money she received (which isn't a whole lot for a nine year old), the rest of the family pitched in and we donated.

Even though I just punched a debit card number into the computer, the kids were so excited! They had the biggest smiles and were shouting, "We did it!" I loved seeing the joy in their faces because they were able to help. I could only imagine the joy in the children's faces who would be receiving the shoes!
