Soles for Shoes

1,000 kids in Africa will now be able to wear shoes to school thanks to members of the York High School Key Club.

Students at the Elmhurst school just got word that their shipment of 1,000 pairs of shoes made it to children in Tanzania. 

They held a fundraiser to collect the shoes after learning that many children in Tanzania go to school barefoot because they don't have the resources to buy shoes.
