Two trucks arrived In Rivne (the hub of work for Mission Without Borders in Ukraine) loaded with new sports shoes from a well known brand name.  After customs clearance, the Mission warehouse workers, together with volunteers from the local church, started the process of matching the shoes - the shoes were unpaired, and mixed! 

We distributed:-
2600 pairs of sports shoes among 35 Children’s Homes
800 pairs – among needy families
950 pairs – among churches and other social organizations
In total, 4350 pairs of these wonderful sports shoes were given out to needy children and families. 

Children have been so excited to get these shoes – one of them exclaimed: “Wow, those are my dream shoes. Look… they’re famous. I’m so grateful. Thank you. Thank you so much.” 

Our workers heard similar things all the time they gave out shoes. Now, everyone wears them with great pride and say they’ll be using them while attending Summer Camp organized by Mission Without Borders.
