This past week my friend, Jamie Despres, traveled to Costa Rica with Soles4Souls. In the village of La Carpio, she and a small group of volunteers distributed hundreds of shoes to children. Each volunteer washes the feet of the child before fitting them with a new pair of shoes. This pair of shoes can be the barrier they need from disease and illness that can end their lives.
I was proud to volunteer my time making small notebook for the kids. Maybe next year, I will be able to do more than that.
To see more about the trip, you can read Jamie's blog, The Best Shoes Are Free, or the Soles4Souls blog.
