Count Down Begins

The count down begins... Toms One Day Without Shoes is in one week. Woot Woot. I will be making my shirt 2mar, Super Excited. I made Chelsey a little baby shirt for her to wear for the big day. Im dont know what I will be doing that day but I know what ever it is I will be going Bare Foot :D To raise awareness of all the children in the world who go everyday without shoes.
Did you know that even right now here in Southeast Kentucky children go without shoes? Its true. When my dad was younger him and his siblings would only get one pair of shoes a year and that was over 50 years ago.. So this really hits home and our community. When I found out that Toms wanted everyone to get on board with One Day Without Shoes, I know that I had to get my friends and family involved. So being the Myspace, Facebook, Twitter person that I am. I sent out emails and Tweets to all my friends. I thought oh maybe a few people will do it others say they will and wont. Well hopefully they will. I even sent the link to my former college and high school teachers. They to thought this was a great idea. The Dean of Administrations at our local college is on board along with the Union College Bonners and Spiritual life. They are hosting a walk during lunch on April 8th and also a shoe drop off. :D How great is that. Ill list below the link to their homepage and also the time of their event on campus. :D Im so excited. Hopefully I have nothing to do that day and can go join them and be a part of their event.

Im so happy that even though Im not still at Union College, I can still get people involved in what matters most. Helping people less fortunate and raising their self esteem and to know that they can do anything when they set their minds to it. :D
