Check out the great coverage by ABC7 Denver of our event this past Friday where Shoes That Fit partnered with Nordstrom to provide 350 pairs of shoes to elementary students at Denver's Munroe Elementary School! The kids had the opportunity to choose different colored shoelaces to reflect their individuality, and we were thrilled to have the Denver Nuggets mascot, Rocky, attend as a special treat for the kids! As 8-year-old Neffie said in the video, “I can even run faster than ever!” Thank you to Nordstrom for making this event possible and for their ongoing commitment to supporting our community. Together, we are helping children attend school with dignity and joy, prepared to learn, play, and thrive. 💙👟 Watch the video here: https://lnkd.in/gvpRC8Km #ShoesThatFit #Nordstrom #CommunitySupport #Education #Denver
