Here we go!

March 25, 2010

Several months ago as I was falling asleep with Africa on my mind God impressed upon my heart a plan to get shoes to Africa.  I had watched a video on YouTube several weeks before and was so disturbed by a problem that is SO huge in several parts of Africa and does NOT have to be!  With the simple desire to give people hope and a healthy future I knew I had to try to get soles on these beautiful people’s feet!

So here we go!  I am attempting to do something I know NOTHING about with the help of my friends, family, community and of course, God.  As I started this journey I thought I would simply collect shoes and give ship them to Africa.  I soon found out from my dear friend Andrea that it could cost THOUSANDS to send these shoes and there are a lot of hurdles to jump in order to get them to Zambia.  SO, plan B.  (You always have to have a plan B ya know :) ) We need to raise $7,000 to get 450 orphans and widows shoes that are a part of Wiphan Care Ministries.  I am still trying to see if there is a way I can ship these shoes that have been donated already and get them to Africa for less than thousands of dollars.

This is exciting and scary all at the same time!  If you can help us in any way please let me know!!
