Day 26 is barefoot crazy!!

No Shoes Tuesday at KOP HQ!!



Today has been incredible for millions of reasons .. 


It started off with lots of donations reaching past the £900 mark early this morning.


While in the office, talking about No Shoes November, both the Student Programme Coordinator Natalia Fricker and Volunteer Ben Eder took off their shoes too! :D We had lots of fun outside taking photos and made them realise how cold it really is! Ben then had to cycle to Uni barefoot and Natalia had to walk 40 mins uphill barefoot! So happy and proud of you both for joining me today. 

I also read a lovely message from Elizabeth at Kochogo Feeding Centre, a project that is 100% funded by KOP students. She thanks everyone for the donations and says lives were changed! This is why I'm doing No Shoes November, to change lives! They are living in poverty but because of KOP they have 3 nutritional meals a day and have access to healthcare and a good education. It isn't much to ask. £25 a month does this. Think you can spare that much? 




I reached my target of £1,000 today :D wahooo!!!

 A few photos from Natalia's long walk home from the KOP office ... 











I'll leave you with my favourite of the day .. Some beautiful children that KOP support showing their appreciation for No Shoes November! These smiling faces are some of the incredible children KOP support. They smile every day yet they have very little but food in their bellies because of KOP.
