Stater Bros. Donation
“The simple gift of a pair of shoes has been shown to increase a child's confidence, attendance, and performance at school. We are so grateful for our continued partnership with Stater Bros. and would like to thank all the Stater Bros. team members and cashiers who tirelessly devoted their time raising these funds. This extraordinary gift will no doubt provide a transformative change in the lives of the children we help. — Amy Fass, CEO/Executive Director, Shoes That Fit
“Shoes aren’t just a fashion statement for children. Comfortable, good-looking shoes are an important contributor to their self-worth, confidence and school performance,” said Stater Bros. Charities Chairman and President Nancy Negrette. “When our stores and customers heard about the mission of Shoes That Fit and the impact they are making for kids, they instantly got behind the campaign and exceeded everyone’s fundraising expectations.”
