My Nonprofit Reviews

My elementary school, 49th Street School, was connected to Shoes that Fit through the police department, in particular a division whose work focuses on community safety and engagement. From the minute we were connected with Shoes that Fit our experience was amazing! First, Stephanie, Shoes That Fit Associate, provided me with a clear timeline and list of tasks and within two weeks of initial contact, all of my 1st and 2nd grade students were each presented with a brand new pair of shoes. The students chose a shoe they liked and volunteers who work with Shoes that Fit and LAPD officers assisted with putting the shoes on students' feet. This is one of the most kind and genuine gestures I have ever seen performed by any human being. My students and their parents were extremely grateful for the gift of shoes.
