I am going to Kenya with a bunch of bloggers on March 2.  When Isabel found out I was going back to Kenya, she started saving her money.

Last year, my family went to Kenya with Compassion International.  Isabel had seen poverty before, so she was well prepared.  She saved her money for that trip so she could purchase toys for kids. She filled up a giant suitcase and hauled it across the world.

After we went to Kenya, we both talked about how many kids did not have very nice shoes.  That got her little head and heart moving.   You see, both Isabel and I have a weakness toward shoes and we both have a closet full.

So Isabel put an announcement out to her Facebook friends, her church friends, and schoolmates, to help with her shoe fund. She calls it “SHOES FOR KIDS”.    Unfortunately, nobody responded to her advertisement, at least not yet, so she took all the money she has saved over the last couple of months, and purchased as many shoes as $30 can buy.

I think she did pretty well.

Now we know feet like these

can get shoes like these.
