Two Pairs of Filas Rocket Fueled (Kids Size 5's)
A Shoe Adoption Project update: Last week, I received an email from the Case Manager Assistant Dinna asking for help with shoes for incoming youth seeking asylum from Central America and India. That same Tuesday night, I placed an online order of eleven pairs of new shoes for the children. Although that order has not been delivered, I was able to deliver two pairs of shoes the matched the sizes to Dinna on Monday - Christmas Eve. These two pairs of colorful shoes came from the donation by my friend Eloise's friend Ryan. Thank you, Ryan!
Dinna is from the David & Margaret Youth and Family Services (Division of Unaccompanied Children Operations Program) located in La Verne. I hope my order will arrive in time for the new year. More to follow.

A follow-up on a previous batch of donation: Thank you to Jim and Anna for sending our shoes to their friend Carlos. Carlos will be driving these shoes along with other donations up to Northern California to help the victims of the Paradise area fire. Thank you, Carlos!
