Sometimes you get a reminder of exactly why we do what we do. โค๏ธ
This year, the Pilot Mountain Civic Club, along with First United Methodist Church, had the privilege of helping provide new back-to-school shoes for students at Westfield Elementary School. ๐
After the shoes were given out, School Counselor Madison Robinette shared some of the reactions she heard:
โThese are the best shoes Iโve ever had.โ
โI love them!โ
โI canโt believe you got me these nice of shoes.โ
She even said there were actual screams of excitement when the boxes were opened. ๐ฅนโค๏ธ
Those words got us right in the heart.
A new pair of shoes may seem like a simple thing, but to a child, it can mean so much more; confidence, excitement, and walking into a new school year knowing that their community cares about them.
A very special thank you to Madison Robinette for thinking of the Pilot Mountain Civic Club and inviting us to be part of such a wonderful and meaningful give-back opportunity. We are so grateful you gave us the chance to help make a difference for these sweet kids.
This is why what we do matters. โค๏ธ
And thank you to everyone who supports the Pilot Mountain Civic Club. Your support makes opportunities like this possible and allows us to continue giving back to the community we love.
Sometimes making a difference really does start with something as simple as a new pair of shoes. ๐โค๏ธ
