YMCA & Sandy’s Shoes
Sandy’s Shoes is committed to making a difference in the lives of children, both here in Austin and in less fortunate countries across the globe. Sandy’s Shoes provides a way for our customers to partner with us as we partner with both the YMCA of Austin and the YMCA International. For every purchase you make at Sandy’s Shoes and our toy store, we pledge $1 to fund YMCA efforts to enrich the lives of children and their families.
The YMCA of Austin
The YMCA of Austin’s Partner of Youth program raises money to provide swimming lessons, after school care, child care, summer camps and memberships to those families and children who could otherwise not afford them. The YMCA of Austin provides over $1 million dollars in scholarships, so no child is turned away from the life enriching programs offered through the YMCA.
The YMCA International
The YMCA International provides resources to young people across the globe, resources in the area of education, job and skill training and technology. So much more than a gym, the YMCA International is a lifeline in communities where government and educational systems are overwhelmed and fall short in providing opportunities and training.
Making a Difference in Your Community
Because you choose to spend locally, with a family owned business like Sandy’s Shoes, you make a big difference. How big? In 2010, because of your faithful support of Sandy’s Shoes, the YMCA of Austin and YMCA International will receive a combined donation of approximately $15,000! Together, we will make a real impact on children, their families, and their future.
