So last Wednesday came and went; but this was no ordinary Wednesday, this was the day FANSOHES donated a batch of shoes to the disaster-torn nation of Haiti.  Everyone took a part in the process.  Katelyn and Lauren were the main box movers while Kenya slapped FANSHOES stickers on the boxes all the while being photographed by Kevin.  Britton was there to manage things and to make sure everything went smoothly.  Gabriel even made an appearance despite being tied up with other obligations throughout the day.

Yes, we wore our newly printed FANSHOES T-shirts, custom made by Bill Kingston and the gang over at Crazy Dog T-shirts, with pride.  We all shared a sense of sadness to see the shoes go but at the same time were very happy knowing the shoes would be giving comfort to those in need in Haiti.  We would like to thank Soles4Souls and everyone else who was involved with this project for making it happen.

More photos after the break!
