My Summer Shoes
Here we are in the Summer of 2017. I have several well worn pairs of shoes that are falling apart at the seams and one even has a broken sole!
I ponder the options as I wear my scuffed and scraped up shoes. Shall I buy a new pair on Amazon? It is good to support local businesses. Maybe I should buy a pair of lovelies from Sole Desire on First Street. Hmmm...Larks has great well made comfortable and cute shoes.
Meanwhile, I continue wearing my old shoes. Every day I remember that millions and millions of people do not have an option of buying shoes.
This blog began as I was painting a number of shoe paintings and found out about Soles 4 Souls. Over the course of time, sales of paintings raised over $1000. to buy and deliver shoes to those souls in need. What a joy.
I want to once again increase my giving to help deliver shoes to those in need.
