Collinsville Charities for Children

Collinsville Charities for Children A charity group that provides underprivileged children with shoes The program has been around since 1982. We appreciate any help or support you can give!

The new group has only been in existence since last year. The program was started by the Collinsville Optimist Club, years later, a few of us took over and started Collinsville Charities for Children. Last year, we provided shoes for almost 400 children from the Collinsville school district, but the need is much greater.

The charity had a great weekend at the Italian Fest and we sold a lot of stuffed Shells and had a lot of fun doing it We battled the heat, but I think we all survived. Thank you to everyone who came out and supported us all weekend long. We greatly appreciate it. It takes a lot of people to pull off a successful event like this. We'd really like to thank our board of directors for all their help and dedication all weekend long. We also would like to thank, Brandi Chambers Hankins from Lotties Cafe in Collinsville. Without her, we would not have the wonderful shells to sell. They were delicious. Would also like to thank the American Legion in Collinsville for all their support and the use Of their rooms to stuff the Shells and prepare everything for the weekend. Thanks to Derrick Keith Cox and the wounderful ladies at the Collinsville Senior Center. And last but not least, thank you to Abby Nelson Thompson At Joe's Pizza and Pasta in Fairview Heights Without all of you, none of this is possible. If you are out and about, please stop by all these wonderful businesses and show support. We will see you all again next year. Thanks again for all the support.
