300 Million People Don't Have Shoes

Imagine if no one in the United States had shoes. That's how many people around the world don't - nearly 300 million. 

Think of how severely it would affect your everyday life. 

For many, no shoes =  no school or work, no escape from poverty or illness, and no hope for the future....simply because they can't walk safely. 

Let's change that.

Feet Facts

Nu Look Salon & Boutique is working with Soles4Souls to help people in desperate need around the world get the shoes they need to start their life off on the right foot. 

Shoes help prevent the spread of parasitic diseases that plague over 1.4 billion people worldwide, and they are a basic human necessity.

The reality of life for many individuals is that having a pair of shoes is a rarity. It is common for people to grow up without ever having had a pair of shoes at all.

Who is affected?

Nearly 1/2 of the world's population — more than 3 billion people — live on less than $2.50 a day. More than 1.3 billion live in extreme poverty — less than $1.25 a day.

Globally, 300 million people can’t afford good shoes. Without them, girls aren’t able to go to school. Mothers have difficulty finding work. Life is a painful struggle and the cycle of female oppression continues – simply because women can’t walk out of it, literally.  

Be a Hero

Many serious health conditions are absorbed through the feet because of lack of shoes. This includes infections, amputations, and even death. People in warm climates are severely affected.

But, for as little as $18, you can create one serious, generational change. Your donation will purchase a brand new, high-quality pair of shoes that come with an extra pair of heels. Our Prophet (peace be upon him) taught us to give others what we ourselves would like to receive. 

The shoes will go directly to Soles4Souls. From there, it is distributed to the girls and women around the world who need it most.

With a new pair of shoes, you can help a girl in Africa get to school, giving her the power to get an education and job. You can help a woman in Guatemala enter the workforce, saving her family from poverty. You can help mothers struggling in the U.S. get back on their feet.

With enough shoes donated, you can even help boost an economy. The shoes can be used to create self-sustaining jobs for impoverished people where they sell the shoes to gain desperately needed revenues.

A sole pair of shoes can change an entire generation. Be the hero that makes that change happen.

Also, here's a picture of me, Manager at Nu Look Salon & Boutique, with some inventory in the back. Imagine the lives we can change with these shoes!
