Little Shoes to Fill

A hands-on mission project
to assist children in Ukraine

Sponsored by the Ohio Conference
United Church of Christ

Affiliated with Sharing America's Resources Abroad
 and SARA's Children

Because of severe economic hardship in Ukraine, many parents are unable to send their children to school because they cannot afford a pair of shoes. 

Your local church can help these children take the "first steps" toward an education by collecting good, used and new shoes for children, aged 6 to 14.

Socks are also needed.
