In so many countries, a pair of shoes is a luxury that’s simply too expensive.
Many schools make footwear compulsory, so not having shoes can also stop a child from getting an education. Your gift is so much more than a pair of shoes. You will help a child walk all the way to school and beyond.
Eric, 11, lives on the streets in the Democratic Republic of Congo. He was one of the thousands of children who have been separated from their families. Thankfully, he was taken in by his older stepbrother, but with footwear being compulsory at school he was still missing out on an education.
Wish List has given him the chance he never thought he’d have – the chance to get an education and walk away from poverty. The simple gift of a pair of shoes means he can go to school, catch up on everything he’s missed, as well as everything he will need in the future to get off the streets and into a career.
