Email I received:
AFL-CIO Community Services is preparing to
distribute shoes for our Soles For Christ Shoe Program in August. We
are in need of volunteers and are asking if you would consider helping
us out. Last year over 1,000 pairs of shoes were given out to students
so you can imagine how many hands it takes to get all those feet fitted
with new shoes. Please keep in mind that this is a very busy, hands-on
volunteer job. There will be hundreds of people here and you will need
to be able to bend and be up and down a lot. We will have a few
positions available at the registration table for those who would like
to volunteer but need to be seated.
The schedule to organize and give out shoes is as follows:
Friday, August 3
9am - 1pm - Set up and organize the shoes
Monday, August 6
8am - 4pm – Register, size, fit and distribute shoes
Tuesday, August 7
8am – 6pm – Register, size, fit and distribute shoes
If
you would be willing to help us out during any of the above times,
please email me with the times that will work for you. If you prefer
you can call me at the number below to schedule a time. After I get
everyone scheduled I will email a master work schedule and more
information to all of the volunteers.
Thanks
to all who have volunteered for us in the past and thanks in advance to
those who may be considering volunteering. I can guarantee you will
see lots of smiles on faces as the kids get their new shoes. It’s a
wonderful program!!!
