Sole Hope exists to help children and families in Uganda walk in freedom from jiggers and other preventable foot conditions through medical care, education, protective shoes, and whole person support.

Shoe Parties are an excellent way for you to make a global impact without ever leaving Houston. During your home party, you will cut and prepare fabric uppers from old jeans that will be used by Sole Hope’s Ugandan cobblers to handcraft shoes for vulnerable kids. Last year, St. Martin’s volunteers cut out over 350 shoe patterns that were then sent to Ugandan cobblers.

This is a true hands-on opportunity for people of all ages to join in the shoemaking process! No special sewing or cobbler skills required, and all supplies are provided. This project is kid-friendly and great for the whole family!

Kits are available for pick up by sign up on Wednesday starting at 10 a.m. from the Front Reception Desk and should be returned to the same location by the following Monday at 3 p.m.
