BAREFOOT DAY AT PAGE HIGH
|
PHS students donate
their shoes to Soles4Souls on Barefoot Day |
On October
28, dozens of students at Page High School took off their
shoes for an event called Barefoot Day. This special
assembly was the culmination of a month long service project
between Page High School's DECA (Distributive Education
Clubs of America) program and a Nashville-based charity
organization called Soles4Souls, which provides shoes to
needy men, women and children around the world.
In the
weeks leading up to October 28, Page High School's marketing
students organized a shoe drive in an attempt to collect as
many pairs of new or gently-used sneakers as possible.
The students also collected monetary donations, which were
later given to Soles4Souls on behalf of the DECA program. |

The
fundraising effort concluded October 28 with Barefoot Day.
On this day, all Page High School students were given the
opportunity to gather on the football field and donate their
shoes to this worthwhile cause. The event was attended
by the Tennessee Titan's All-Pro Safety and Soles4Souls
spokesman Chris Hope, who spoke to the students about the
Soles4Souls mission and thanked them for their contribution. |
