Get ready to help local students step into the colder months with confidence! Kicks for Kids begins this weekend, with shoe tags available starting Saturday, September 26.
This year, we will again provide new athletic shoes and socks for students at 16 area schools—10 elementary schools and five middle schools—as well as Las Abejitas Bilingual Education Center at First Lutheran.
A new pair of shoes means so much more than something new to wear. Warm, dry, properly fitting shoes help children walk safely to and from school, participate comfortably at recess and focus on learning instead of worrying about cold, wet or worn-out footwear. They can also give a student an important boost of confidence and pride.
You can help by selecting a shoe tag and shopping for a specific child or by making a financial donation and allowing us to shop for you. Please return all purchased shoes to the church by Sunday, October 11.
