Shoe Drive 2011

FHS FCCLA collected 231 pairs of shoes to be donated to My Sister's Closet whose proceeds go to various causes including abuse victims. All of the shoes represent a child who is/was a victim of child abuse in Texas. We led the walk around the courthouse again this year. One difference from last year was our voice. 2010, we led a very quiet parade. This year, we rallied and yelled! BE AWARE! Children need a voice. We're here to give it.

Here are our pictures for this year's event.
