We are proud to partner with Shoes That Fit to provide new athletic shoes to every student in need at Moffett Elementary School to help ensure they have the confidence to succeed and step forward into a brighter future. A heartfelt thank you to the thousands of travelers who generously donated during their journeys, enabling us to give back to the Los Angeles community. And a big shout out to our amazing HMSHost and Hudson team members from LAX for volunteering to help make this possible for the students.
Last week, we partnered with Shoes That Fit to provide brand new athletic shoes to 650 students at Moffett Elementary in Lennox, CA. Donations to support this effort came from passengers shopping at dining venues, travel convenience, specialty retail, and duty-free stores operated by Avolta brands HMSHost, Hudson, and Dufry Group in the U.S. and Canada. "Journey For Good Foundation extends heartfelt thanks to the thousands of travelers who generously donated during their journeys, enabling us to give back to the Los Angeles community," said our Director, Jordan Silverman, MBA. “Feeling good about how you look is important when you come to school," emphasized Salvador Martin, Principal at Moffett ES. "A new pair of “kicks” will help our kids start their day on the right foot. This donation goes a long way towards making our students feel seen.” Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eEdiZeT8
