The First Shoes of 2016 have been Collected! Thanks Erie E-Free Church!!

Erie Evangelical Free Church in Erie, Illinois has collected the first pairs of shoes for the 2016 Project Respond Humanitarian Aid Drive for Another Child Foundation (ACF). ACF provides humanitarian aid to our Romanian partner Fundatia Buckner to improve the living conditions and well-being of the families and children we assist. Through these aid drives we demonstrate the love that God has put onto our hearts to transform the hearts of those less fortunate.

Here is part of a post from Erie E-Free's Facebook page.

We had a great time Friday night at Erie Evangelical Free Church for our Soup for the Sole event! Hard to beat a potluck Soup dinner, family game night, and 75 pairs of shoes toward our annual shoe drive for Another Child Foundation. Special thanks to the EEFC Missions Committee for putting this event together.



This year ACF will be collecting new pairs of shoes and socks for children ages 3 to 14. Athletic shoes are the most versatile shoe a person can donate. We will also be collecting financial support for 250 school supply kits for the 125 children attending the Point of Hope Development Center in Tarneveni, Romania. The kits cost $15 each and include all of the school supplies a child will need for the 2016/17 school year. If you would like to support the school kit part of our drive you can click on the link below to make a donation towards the purchase of kits.
