Barefoot in April

A huge thank you to the thirty-four people who joined us for our One Day Without Shoes walk through downtown Traverse City. Two local schools, Westwoods Elementary and Mill Creek Elementary, went shoeless for the day. This event was a huge success and the impact we made was tremendous. The purpose of the day was to help recognize how small, simple things - such as shoes - can make a tremendous difference in the life of someone. In conjuction with the Day Without Shoes United Way held a shoe drive that helped fill the needs of many in our community and the world around us - we collected over 500 pairs of shoes!
