From wellies for muddy paths to party shoes just for smiles, your Sal’s Shoes have been finding new feet across Nicaragua thanks to our wonderful partners Feed The Hungry UK and Feed The Hungry Nicaragua.
Distributions took place in rural communities including Cerro Verde and Valle de San Juan, where some children walk up to six miles to school, and only have access to running water every eight days.
We collect all kinds of shoes – because we know they’re needed in all kinds of places. Among the hundreds of pairs sent to Nicaragua were sturdy shoes for everyday wear, colourful boots for the rainy season, and sparkly party shoes that bring joy just because.
One special pair of rainbow-spotted shoes carried a note from their previous owners, Macy and Freya. Their message made its way all the way to Maria in Cerro Verde – who wrote back with a note of her own.
“Muchas gracias Macy + Freya.”
In places where owning a single pair of shoes is a luxury, your donations are doing more than protecting feet – they’re connecting hearts.
