The Magic Of A Good Pair Of Shoes

 

They can change your life!

 

While Olena was here with us over the summer, we participated in many fun activities. One of them was a trip hiking up to the Timpanogos caves. On the way down she broke the shoes she was wearing. After realizing that they were her only pair of shoes, we took her straight to the shoe store (one of my favorite places) and I told her she could pick any shoes she wanted.

She was a little overwhelmed with all the choices but we had a great time and she came away with a couple of new pairs that she loved.  She is wearing one of those pairs in the picture above.


Most of us women are a little shoe obsessed. We probably all have more than one pair of shoes that we thought we like when we were in the store, but after we get home, we realize that they don't really fit, or we really don't have anything to wear with them after all. Let me tell you about a way that we can purge our closets of those unused shoes and our obsession for good.

With the help of The Fairy Godmother Institute, 

You Can make dreams come true for orphans all over the world. 

 

This wonderful organization is currently holding a fundraiser that will

benefit two families that are trying to adopt.

 

Our Family

-and-

The Truax Family

 

Here is how you can help: 

New and gently used shoes will be collected and auctioned off on ebay to earn money 

for families  like mine, that are trying to adopt.  

 

Then... just like MAGIC, 

 

 

 

orphans will have a better shot at getting adopted by loving families that currently don't have the means to pay the required adoption fees.

 

Check out how you can donate shoes.

Just think:

 You, along with my friends at The Fairy Godmother Institute, 

can help transform the lives of orphans all over the world!
