Last year one of the things that really influenced me was seeing how many children there were in Africa with no shoes. I hated seeing their bare feet with sores from the bare ground.

So after I came home last year I knew I wanted to get shoes to send back there. In the fall sandles went on sale for the winter. I bought as many as I was able to and hoped I'd be able to go back and get more. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to return to Africa but I knew I could send them if I didn't.

It was really neat not only be able to return this year but also incredible to take the shoes with me and put them on the bare feet of the children!
