CFBISD students at Davis Elementary School received a special gift from Samaritan’s Feet International on Thursday. The nonprofit organization provided new shoes and socks to students as part of a special partnership with the school. Samaritan’s Feet serves and inspires hope in children by providing shoes as the foundation to a spiritual and healthy life resulting in the advancement of education and economic opportunities.
Samaritan’s Feet believes that a new a pair of shoes and the act of foot-washing can:
- Provide a tangible foundation of hope and the opportunity for a better life.
- Prompt children to focus in school and families not to worry.
- Protect feet and decrease the possibility of getting a foot-borne disease.
Staff and volunteers from Whataburger and Samaritan’s Feet were on site to help with the distribution. Local elected officials from the community were also in attendance to help distribute shoes.
