Thank you to everyone who came out to support Our Hearts To Your Soles 2018! The event was a tremendous success, and we would not have been able to make the night happen without the help of so many individuals and organizations. I am blessed to know so many great people who are willing to come together for the good of others. OHTYS is always one of my favorite nights of the year, and Tuesday did not disappoint.
We performed medical foot screening exams, gave out new Red Wing Boots, Superfeet orthotic inserts, socks, hygiene kits, flu shots and provided legal advice to 365 people at the Catholic Charities Opportunity Center in Minneapolis over the course of three and a half hours on Tuesday, November 20th. This means we managed to eclipse the number of individuals we helped at our 2017 event, which is just awesome! You can check out some photos of the event courtesy of Catholic Charities of the Twin Cities.
Thank You
