Operation Walk Tall Update
As of last count, Operation Walk Tall has received 861 pairs of shoes with 30 boxes yet unopened. We are on schedule to make our initial distribution to the orphanage within 2 weeks. I'd like to thank all the readers for this tremendous response and outpouring of charity.

Are yall still wanting more shoes? My sister's mother-in-law is manager of the local Goodwill store, so I'm sure I could get a few pairs up to send. I guess socks might be needed too? To prevent shoes from turning into WMDs...Happy to oblige with those too if needed.
Cheers and THANKS, MKL
