Running for Shoes (CityLife)

YTD Raised: $0.00The goal of Running for Shoes is to put shoes on village and impoverished children. It is our vision to enable as many of these children as possible to walk to school and live life in general with shoes on their feet. In 2013, we focussed on children in India and raised enough money to purchase shoes for 8,000 children. Our partners in India have told us stories of happiness as children receive their first ever pair of shoes and their amazement that people in Australia are running for them. It is not just these children who are astounded but their parents are brought to tears as their children receive these shoes. In 2014, we focussed on children in Ethiopia and in November 2015 a team from Australia will be travelling to our partner in Ethiopia to be a part of purchasing and distributing shoes to children there! This year, Running for Shoes will add children from one more region to our cause... Cambodia! Join us in running for shoes, supporting children in Cambodia!
