Shoe Drive Thank You

Shoe Drive Thank You Jindal School

A big THANK YOU to all the kind “soles” who donated shoes for the Jindal School’s External Relations Office 40 Acts of Service drive for Buckner Shoes for Orphan Souls.

Shoes for Orphan Soles is the largest humanitarian aid project of Buckner International. The goal was to collect at least 40 pairs of new shoes in honor of JSOM’s 40th anniversary.

Students, faculty and staff members throughout JSOM participated, and the External Relations Office is grateful. Events and Marketing Manager Holly Rio, who spearheaded the drive, delivered 100 pairs to Buckner’s Mesquite warehouse, where they were immediately loaded into a bin for sorting and shipping to orphans wherever they are needed most.

Special thanks to the people who brought in several pairs of shoes and to one wonderful person who brought in several bags of shoes.

Since 1999, Buckner has distributed more than 3 million pairs of shoes and socks to orphans and vulnerable children in 80 countries. Most of the shoes are delivered (via shipping containers) through Buckner staff working overseas.

Thank you, gracias, merci, arigato, danke, 谢谢, धन्यवाद, asante aana, ขอบคุณมากค่ะ.
