🎨👟 Our partnership with Saving Soles By AK is still going strong! We recently brought our Teens in Action students an unforgettable experience—customizing their very own sneakers! They unleashed their creativity, painting their Air Force Ones and expressing themselves through art. Saving Soles' mission to empower students with the tools they need to succeed aligns perfectly with our goal of preparing teens for their future. Huge thanks to Saving Soles for making this possible and helping our students take one step closer to their dreams! #TeensInAction #SavingSoles #CustomSneakers #YouthEmpowerment #StudentSuccess #CampFireFirstTexas #CampFireFw #Nonprofit
