Kids Korps Volunteers Help to Collect Shoes for the Sport Chalet Shoes Drive

Kids Korps Volunteers Collecting Shoes for Haiti

Last week our Liberty Station, worked to collect shoes as part of the Sports Chalet, Soles 4 Souls collection for Haiti.
We set up bins at three schools, Explorer Elementary, High Tech Middle Media Arts, and High Tech Middle School — all schools in the High Tech Village / Liberty Station.
Our volunteers worked to set up and decorate the huge collection bins, promote and communicate the collection and monitoring the bins throughout the week.  On Friday after school was out, our members sorted, bagged and transported over 500 pairs of shoes!
The dedication and support of our members, and the entire High Tech school system was overwhelming!
We are very proud to have participated in the effort to provide shoes to victims of the earthquake.
