Christmas Shoes

The smallest things in life can make the biggest difference.
In the undeveloped nations and poverty-stricken regions where our outreaches are located, families and children simply cannot afford shoes. Their bare feet are subjected to infections that often lead to devastating consequences including crippled feet, disease and in rare cases death.
It costs $3.60 to manufacture and deliver each pair of shoes, making our project goal $720,000.
You can imagine just how much new shoes would mean to a child who has never owned a pair! This year is our 7th year for LIFE’s Christmas Shoes Project, and we are already working heard to complete as many shipments as possible in time for the holidays. For children who have never received anything new, who’ve never received a gift at Christmas, that will be a day of great joy!
