Shoes needed . . . you can help!
3rd Annual
Community-Wide Shoe Drive
Nov. 1-30, 2011
Hundreds of homeless and near homeless men, women and children live in our community. Help us provide them with the shoes they need.
Consider these statistics:
- More than 1021 children in the Poudre School District were identified as being homeless in 2010-11.
- More than 40,000 people currently live in poverty in Larimer County.
- 64.2% of Colorado's newly homeless population are families with children.
