RECEIVE SHOES FOR CHILDREN IN YOUR CARE
We know that returning to school can bring all kinds of new stresses into your already stressful home. One of the ways we would like to support your family as your kids return to school is by providing a brand new pair of shoes to each school-age child in your home (kindergarten and older). That’s one thing you can check off your list!
THE DEADLINE TO SIGN UP FOR THE 2024 SHOE DROP HAS PASSED (JULY 5th)
WHAT KIDS QUALIFY FOR NEW SHOES?
• ALL children living in a foster home (including biological or adopted children), with a kinship caregiver, or a safety plan home.
• Must be school-age – entering kindergarten thru 12th grade.
• Caregivers will be verified through agencies and DFPS caseworkers (you will include this info in your request).
HOW DO WE REQUEST SHOES?
• Fill out the form below with all information. Please do not leave any spaces blank.
• Caseworkers, CASA, etc. may request and pickup items for families. However, you will need to fill out the form using the family’s information (not your own). There will be a place to indicate who is filling out the form and who will be picking up. There is only one shopping time for caseworkers and CASA workers. If you cannot make this time work, we will have the shoes ready for you curbside after the event.
WHEN/WHERE DO WE GET THE SHOES?
• There will be a shoe shopping event on Sunday, August 4th at Concordia Lutheran Church from 1pm – 3:30pm. Your family will choose a shopping time slot and each child will get to pick out their own shoes. The shopping time for caseworkers or CASA advocates to shop for shoes is 3:30pm-4:00pm.
• Address: 16801 Huebner Rd, San Antonio, Texas.
• You can send anyone to pick up the shoes for you as long as they have a copy of your confirmation email.
