Story
I am humbled to have been selected as one of Samaritan's Feet's 2021 Hope Givers. My desire is to help serve, inspire and spread the story of Samaritan's Feet. It is a story highlighted by the incredible work they are doing around the world, giving hope to children and adults by providing shoes as the foundation for a spiritual and healthy life, which can lead to new educational and economic opportunities for them.
For those of us fortunate enough to have new shoes (or shoes at all) as we were growing up, we remember the great feeling it gave us. That is something everyone should be able to experience. I have personally known Manny since our days in college together and had the privilege of helping Manny and his wife Tracie with this wonderful cause over the past two years. As part of this year's Hope Giver's campaign, I have pledged to try and raise approximately $20,000. This would make possible donations of more than 1,000 pairs of shoes and socks and, equally important, the spiritual uplifting for children and adults in need across our local communities and the world. When you donate to Samaritan's Feet, you help give shoes to those in need and, in doing so, you also help combat foot-borne diseases., You become a friend and advocate to those in need of love and support, and ultimately, a world changer.
I welcome any monetary contribution personally or from a corporate perspective. Further, I would welcome having you join the fundraising effort as part of our team, making introductions to companies and individuals within your network who would like to get involved with this wonderful cause, or suggesting other areas where you believe you could contribute and help make a difference. As they always say, "No contribution is too small, and every effort is appreciated and welcomed." Please let me know if you would like more information in this regard.
Thank you for your kindness and support in helping us positively affect people around the world.
