Because of our incredible Soles of Hope supporters, we were recently able to respond to an urgent request for specialized shoes for a child experiencing a medical need.

While Soles of Hope is largely focused on providing new shoes to children in our community, it also gives us the ability to step in when a child has a unique need that their family may not have the financial means to address.

After helping this family, we received a message from the child's mom that we wanted to share:

"I am honestly so grateful for you guys! It may not seem like much to some people, but as a mom who has fallen on really hard times, you guys have been such a blessing to me and my girls! Thank you for all you guys do!"

And this is why your support matters so much!

To some, it might just be a pair of shoes. But to a child with a medical need, those shoes can make a tremendous difference in their daily life. And to a parent already struggling financially, having one less thing to worry about means more than we can sometimes put into words.

To everyone who attended Soles of Hope, sponsored our event, donated shoes, or supported our mission in any way, thank you.

You made it possible for us to say "yes" when this family needed help. And that is something pretty special!
