This month, the Fair Trade Cafe at my school sponsored an organization started by a high school girl from my home church: A Walk in My Shoes. About three years ago, she realized that there was a need for shoes in Haiti, so she started collecting them. In those three years, she has collected over 9,000 pairs of shoes and AWIMS became an official nonprofit organization. Not many people can honestly say they've made that much of an impact on the world before they even got to college!
My school raised about 62 pairs of shoes to send her way. Not bad. :)
Reckless Tip of the Day: Give some of your excess to someone who needs it.
