The 50,000 Pairs in 50 Days Challenge

“soles4souls is an amazing charity here in nashville that has one mission: get shoes to people who need shoes. over 300 million people around the world don’t have shoes and are forced to walk around unsafe and in potentially life-threatening conditions. not only is it unsafe physically, but having to look down all the time causes these people to also live without dignity and confidence.

Let’s get money raised for 50,000 shoes in 50 days and make it as easy as possible for people to not only donate online, but to spread the word about the campaign. the only way this goal can be reached is if you not only donate $5, but spread the word!

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Go to 50000shoes.com. a $5 donation buys two pairs of shoes.

Everyone has $5 (or more!). and everyone has 2 minutes. from start to finish, donating is literally three clicks. no fluff. no hassle. anyone can donate. it is so, so easy!

And it’s easy to spread the word. use the graphics on your blog. email everyone you know. join the facebook group and ask your friends to do the same!”

As of today they have received 3,312 pairs.  Let’s do what we can to reach 50,000.

Halloween 2008

These pictures are a little late, but the ones we took on Halloween didn’t turn out well.  So my husband the photographer had them put their costumes back on on Tuesday and worked his Photoshop magic on them…

Enjoy!
