Assistance League of St. Louis® Steps to Success Program Kicks Off Fall Season
Assistance League of St. Louis Steps to Success program is on pace to provide approximately 3,500 St. Louis area school children with new athletic shoes and 3 pairs of socks during the 2016-2017 season. Each fitting day, 20 to 25 Assistance League volunteers travel to three elementary schools and fit the children (K through 4th grade) with a pair of the latest styles and colors in athletic shoes. Many of the children are wearing the incorrect shoe size or shoes that allow their feet to get wet. “The comfort and fun of having new socks and shoes is unmistakable when you see the big smiles on the children’s faces,” observes a volunteer. Many of the children remark that it feels like they are walking on clouds. This fall and next spring, Assistance League volunteers will visit 32 schools in eight school districts. Assistance League’s philanthropic partner, Shoe Carnival, provides invaluable help in the form of three employees who work alongside Assistance League volunteers each fitting day. Assistance League of St. Louis is a non-profit, all-volunteer organization whose members identify, develop, implement, and fund ongoing community programs to serve the specific needs of children and adults in the St. Louis community. Assistance League of St. Louis was organized in 1987 and chartered as the 80th chapter of National Assistance League in 1990. All funds raised are returned to the St. Louis community. Assistance League of St. Louis is an accredited charity of the Better Business Bureau and a Guidestar Gold member. For more information, please visit www.alstl.org.
