What is “Shoes for Kids”?

• “Shoes for Kids” will:

– Collect donations of new tennis shoes

– Distribute those shoes to children in need

Why help “Shoes for Kids”?

Many kids do not have tennis shoes that fit their feet

NEED

Some kids have only old, worn out shoes

Or worse…the most common summer shoe

dangerous

and

bad for feet

Who gets the shoes?The kids living in Massac County Housing Authority
