What do you think kids in Haiti get for Christmas? Not as much as we get here in America. There is a group of people traveling to Haiti this month who wanted to take shoes for kids, and I am sad because we don’t have very many shoes to send with them. We only have about 15 pairs of shoes, and it just doesn’t seem fair that only 15 kids would get shoes and no other kids would. So there are kids who need shoes and on this Christmas they won’t get any. I feel horrible about this. The good news is we have sent out over 4,000 pairs of shoes this year, but our stock of shoes is low right now. So as you might have thought, I am writing to you to say WE NEED MORE SHOES. I don’t want another trip to go that requests to take shoes for kids, but we don’t have enough shoes to send. So please help out by e-mailing me at shoesforkids@comcast.net . I can answer any questions you have.
I also want to say that by the end of this winter break, I will have another Shoes for Kids video out.
Please help us collect more shoes, we have many trips coming up and we want children to get shoes. And by the way, please don’t send smelly shoes that are old. If you don’t want to wear the shoes that you send, then neither do the children. Please send only new or gently used shoes.
Thanks for all of you who love helping kids get shoes on their feet!! Let’s make some happy feet!
