28: Shoes Speak Louder Than Words
On this episode, I want you to meet one of the most focused and purpose-driven people I have ever met. Kris Horlacher is the Executive Director of Shoes 4 the Shoeless, a non-profit she founded that provides new, properly fitting gym shoes and socks to children in need. Kris’s journey from R.N. to Executive Director of this very efficient and effective non-profit is a true testament to following God’s call and having faith that He will guide and provide. Learn with me as Kris shares how she and her team -- only 3 staff and 500+ volunteers! -- are easing both the physical and emotional suffering of kids in poverty by gifting dignity and hope in a shoebox.
