Each year we partner with a few good people to bring the community a massive back-to-school day. We not only partner to collect book bags and supplies. We organize and stuff the book bags according to age, grade level, and supply list. On the day of distribution we provide free food and entertainment for the kids and parents. It's amazing to see the kids talents as we offer performance slots, and offer competitive activities for the kids to take part in.

They can injure feet and hurt self-esteem. They can make kids feel less than. More than 600 million people worldwide don’t even own a pair of shoes. Have you ever wondered if there is a way to recycle old sneakers instead of just throwing them away?  A hand-me-down pair of shoes can put the biggest smile on a kids face!
