Shoes for Soldiers was thought up with our soldiers in mind. As you know, there are many injuries that our soldiers go through. Some of them resulting in amputations or prosthetic legs. This can be a very hard time for soldiers and their families. We want to make a difference by creating this project. So, what is Shoes for Soldiers? Simple, we design a Sharpie shoe (like Converse or Vans) with a one-of-a-kind design. The catch? We only design one. Instead of designing two (a right and a left) shoes, we only design one of them. This is to represent the soldiers who have to live with prosthetic arms or legs or anything else or amputations. It\'s a great and stylish way to help out people who fight for our country. With the money we raise, we will donate to the Wounded Warrior Project. One stylish shoe not your thing? You can also help by donating money to help us further our cause. Any amount is greatly accepted. Or, you can also purchase a pair to donate to a soldier. If you know someone currently serving or was serving, you can get their name drawn on the shoe! Living or deceased, we appreciate all our soldiers. Our goal is to raise $25,000 by June 30, 2014. Any monetary donations are a valuable source, other donations including plain, white, canvas shoes (such as Converse or Vans), Sharpies or permanent markers, and other supplies that you think we may need are also amazing! This is a great way for anyone to help out :)
