What a great idea!!
I work for Samaritan's Feet. We put shoes on children's feet all around the world.
Our founder, Emmanuel Ohonme, is a true man of his word and is the real deal. His story is amazing. He's from Nigeria. He received his first pair of shoes at the age of 9 from a missionary, who also taught him how to play basketball.
He earned a scholarship to play basketball at the University of North Dakota, where he received his bachelors and masters. He spent ten years in the marketing field and then started Samaritan's Feet four years ago.
We have collected over 500,000 pairs of shoes and distributed them throughout the world. It's an amazing ministry and story.
Here's how you can help:
For $29.99 you can put two pairs of shoes on kids feet throughout the world. Click on the link to buy some shoes.
Thank you for your great idea and consideration.

Servant's Heart was established to help families in Beech Grove and the surrounding area by providing year-round support for those struggling to make ends meet. Assistance is available for all persons residing in the Beech Grove community and adjacent southeast areas of Marion county within the following zip codes: 46259, 46233 – South of Troy, 46203 – South of Raymond, 46107, 46224, and 46237.
Over 33 million people in the United States exist at or below the poverty level. It is estimated in the greater Indianapolis Metropolitan area alone, 13.5% of the residents, (60% of which are children), fall into the "below-poverty" category - many lacking even fundamental nutritional needs. The need for food, clothing, and basic necessities in our own community is staggering.
If you would like to find out more about our organization, volunteer or have items that you would like to donate, please contact us at 1-317-788-9433.
