    YAP has donated shoes to an orphanage for the blind in Tanzania as well as the Compass Center in San Francisco

    • We have donated a total of 700 pairs of shoes to the 600 blind orphans in Tanzania.
    • We want to thank Vans, adidas, Converse, Reebok, and Puma for being so generous in saving the lives of these orphans who have suffered all this time from foot fungus, when the only cure is wearing shoes.
    • The first package of shoes just arrived in Tanzania and it has completely changed their lives. The rest is still on its way to Tanzania, arriving there soon.
    • Thanks to Converse, we also donated 123 pairs of shoes to the Compass Center
    • The Compass Center is a shelter for homeless kids in San Francisco, age 2-10, who live their lives sleeping in the streets or in broken families
    • The shelter is their only source of hope to thrive

    YAP has donated another 360 pairs of shoes to the Orphanage in Tanzania

    We have just shipped 300 pairs of Vans shoes plus another 60 pairs of Converse shoes to the orphanage in Tanzania, bringing us very close to our 600 pair quota. This also includes the 200 pairs of shoes we sent last week. The orphanage has 600 kids, all of them blind and never having worn shoes before. This is a donation of at least $18,000 in cost with an approximate retail value of $33,000.

    By doing this, we can change the lives of these orphans by preventing the spread of foot fungus, which is their biggest problem for them.
