For it’s in giving that we receive.
-Francis of Assisi
Very proud of Shoecyclists Taarini, Bharat and Sarvesh for collecting and giving 55 pairs of new shoes to the residents at the Sunrise Village Shelter run by Abode Services.
Happy holidays and wishes for a joyous and happy and healthy new year.
When the whole world is looking for ways to frighten and scare,
Shoecyclists in Chicago are spreading kindness and care!
Kudos to our Chicago Group – Shoecyclists Arnav, Samyak, Ansh and Soham who collected over 600 pairs to help homeless individuals in Chicago.
Here’s the group handing out gently-used pairs before brutal Chicago winter!
It’s was a hot summer day and hundreds of pairs were strewn around us. By now, we know what to look for, and we sorted and packed as we reminisced about people and their stories. We see familiar faces now when we go to St. James park.
Homeless individuals have so many stories – they have lost their families, their jobs, their homes and many times their health. We have connected with so many and hopefully have made our local communities more empathetic to their plight…
PATH Services in San Jose calls us regularly for shoes for their homeless patrons…It is very rewarding to give back in little ways we can…
We are so thankful to Congressman Ro Khanna, who joined us in handing out shoes to homeless individuals in St. James Park, San Jose. As always, it is a very sobering event, as hundreds of pairs of shoes are distributed within minutes…We see familiar faces now.
We gratefully acknowledge Maxim employees who collected several hundred pairs of shoes for Shoecyclist. We sent these shoes to Hamilton Family Center in San Francisco and PATH services in San Jose.
What a feeling to give new pairs of shoes to the residents of Abode Services in Fremont. It’s unbelievable how a pair of shoes can bring a smile to the face of a small child…
