I never really thought that there were people that don’t wear shoes and don’t get to have them,” said Webster. Last year, Webster and her classmates and staff at the school and Calvary Church donated more than 1,000 of shoes.

This year, the school and church are still holding the activity. They collect new or lightly used shoes to Soles4Souls. It is a global nonprofit organization that gives shoes and clothing to people in need for free.

Head of the school Troy saw Sole4Souls as a good way to develop the charitable(慈善的) giving. ”It’s amazing how easy it is to give away what we have in our closet already. And it doesn’t hurt too much,” he said. ”it’s just growing generosity(慷慨) in our students. It’s helping them to think beyond themselves..”

The goal this year is to collect 1,500 pairs of shoes, Troy said. A group of students including Webster is heading up the thing. They create posters to put up around their school yard and spread the word to church members and their neighbors.

Taking part in Soles4 Souls has also changed the way Bella, 12, thinks of shoes. Last year, she gave five pairs –including some she wanted to keep. Now she is looking forward to doing it.
