Kicks and Hearts

Fashion. Trendy. In. meet Giving. Others. Love.



The latter are things of greater importance to be sure, but these all come together with this new mission started by a few Christ-followers in Iraq. The core value of this enterprise is beautiful. They are selling intricately hand-made shoes called klash (made in northern Iraq by people they now know by name) for the purpose of funding surgeries and traveling expenses for Iraqi children with severe heart problems. The idea is simple as is expressed in the name of the organization: Buy Shoes. Save Lives. Jeff showed me this website on Saturday night. One of the founders got in touch with me within twelve hours of my correspondence and was excited about sharing the story. You must check this out! Go to http://buyshoessavelives.com/ now!
