K-8 Service Outreach Project Begins This Week Robin Telfian, a St. Michael’s parent, oversees a non-profit called Shood (formerly Soles2Share) that is “dedicated to providing new and gently used athletic shoes to homeless individuals and those who are living in poverty in Richmond.” As part of a school-wide service outreach initiative, St. Michael’s is partnering with Shood to collect gently-used shoes and personal care items from February 11-March 6. Our students will then assemble foot care bags for Shood. Each grade will collect a different item. (See attached for more information.)
Mrs. Telfian will come to St M on February 11 and 14 to talk to our Middle Schoolers about Shood. Chaplain Hansen visited each of the Lower School grades this week to read the book F our Feet, Two Sandals as an entry point into discussions on "why we are doing this service?" Thank you in advance for your support!
