School starts in just two days.  Many children will head to their first day of school with no supplies or new clothing and this is something we want to change.

NEW CLOTHES & SHOES ARE LIFE CHANGING

To some, this may sound silly but imagine it is your first day of school you wake without a backpack, new shoes, clothing, or anything to be prepared.  Every single child in our world should be afforded the same privileges when they walk through the school doors.  Think how you feel with a brand-new dress or new pair of shoes.  Now multiply that by a thousand for a child.  It builds confidence.  It makes them feel good.  They deserve that.

Angel here and I was one of those kids growing up.  I remember the individuals who helped me get a winter coat when I was in middle school.  It made me feel good.  It put a smile on my face and it made me want to go to school.  I felt special.  It is a feeling 30 some years later I have never forgotten.

YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO HELP

The International Center of Owensboro is seeking donations to help about 100 students get a new pair of shoes and clothing before the first day of school.  Here is their post from Facebook;
