Shoe Night

We began "Shoe Night" in 2004. We now have two "Shoe Night" events per year where all Greenville county Foster Parents can bring their foster children to select a pair of shoes of their choosing. This is especially important to our teens because it allows them to feel equal to their peers on some level, giving them the opportunity to express their individuality. The smiles on the faces of our children when they walk out of the store with a new pair of shoes are priceless. In 2007, we also opened the invitation to all foster care children in our area group homes and provided nearly 500 pair of shoes for foster care children at two Shoe Night events for a cost of $14,153.93. 
 

Due to the increased number of children entering foster care, GCFPA is now actively seeking sponsorship for our "Shoe Night" events.
