WHAT WE DO
Heart and Soul Shoes, Inc in a is a 501-c-3 not-for-profit organization that provides new shoes to low-income and disadvantaged children and educates our community about the needs of these children. We give hundreds of pairs of shoes to children at need annually.
WHO QUALIFIES
Children are selected for Heart and Soul Shoes by our engagement their guidance counselor, school nurse, teacher, or principal or by a staff member or Executive Director of a non-for profit organization serving the child.
The adult will measure the child’s feet for proper fit and let Heart and Soul Shoes know the child’s age, sex, and shoe size. If we don’t already have appropriate shoes on hand from recent shoe drives or shoe parties, Heart and Soul “buyers” will purchase shoes for the child and deliver them to the guidance counselor or adult who made the request. The child will then be called to the office, fitted, and given their NEW shoes in the privacy of the staff offices.
All shoes come with a Heart and Soul Shoes Tag to take home so the child can show his or her parents that he has received “Heart+Soul Shoes”.
We ask that the child write a thank you note or draw a picture of their new shoes and send their thank you to Heart and Soul Shoes.
We usually have a few key volunteers at each school who facilitate Heart and Soul Shoes distributions.
