Giving Hope, Giving Shoes: The Effects of Small Feet on the Lives of Children

When was the last time you thought about your child’s shoes? Not just their color or style, but how they fit and what they might be doing to those tiny, growing feet.

Unfortunately, even something as basic as shoes is out of reach for a lot of children in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

KJ’s non-profit organization, Lyttle Feet, is working to change that.

The Intent of Lyttle Feet

Lyttle Feet was established with the sole purpose of giving shoes to disadvantaged kids and equipping them with the means to thrive in life, motivated by KJ’s personal observation of kids without appropriate footwear. Lyttle Feet is committed to providing children who are most in need of shoes with opportunities, dignity, and hope in addition to shoes.

The Importance of Shoes

It may not seem like much, but for kids, shoes are very important.

A quality pair of footwear can:

• Prevent wounds and infections from their feet.
• Make it more comfortable for them to go to school so that they can concentrate better.
• Give them confidence and a sense of pride in their day-to-day activities.

At Lyttle Feet, we acknowledge that each pair of shoes we give these children is an advance toward a brighter future.

The Operation of Lyttle Feet

To provide shoes to kids in need, Lyttle Feet uses a combination of community involvement and donation-driven programs

We collect brand-new and gently used shoes to give to underprivileged kids.

Distribution Events: Making connections with local communities and schools to distribute shoes directly to children who are most in need.

Outreach initiatives: Informing the public about the vital role shoes play in children’s education and health.

Your Assistance Makes a Difference

Lyttle Feet operates by partnerships, volunteers, and donations. You can make a difference by volunteering at an event, giving a pair of shoes, or just spreading awareness.

Supporting Lyttle Feet gives kids the self-assurance and chance to succeed in school, play, and life.
