Payless Gives Shoes 4 Kids Program

FSGC and Payless ShoeSource worked together again over the 2009 holidays to put shoes on the feet of children who needed them.

FSGC participated in the Payless Gives Shoes 4 Kids Program, a grass roots campaign to deliver $1.2 million in free shoes to children of families in need. FSGC was awarded 50 gift coupons that were given to several of our Christmas adopted families.

“We’re always proud to work with Payless ShoeSource,” Amy Burns, FSGC Director of Marketing and Development, said. “They are a generous member of the Topeka community and truly invested in helping us improve the lives of our children and families.”

An Ode To FSGC

Family Service helped me cope.
My life was hard. There wasn't hope.
My life has now been turned around,
Self Confidence and Trust in others I've found.

If you need help......come to this place;
It's guarenteed to help put a smile on your face.
