Listerhill’s Kicks for Kids came stomping back to town in a big way this week with a huge “Shoe Drop” at Harlan Elementary School. In partnership with California based, Shoes That Fit, every student received a pair of brand-named, new shoes and 5 pairs of socks during the delightful celebration which featured music, recognition and lots of smiles.

Listerhill Credit Union’s CEO, Brad Green who was on hand to help distribute the shoes commented, “We are delighted to be able to serve our community in such a meaningful way. By providing a child with a new pair of shoes we help to increase their self-esteem, encourage school participation, increase physical activity and give them an opportunity to reach their potential.”

Dr. Thomas Casteel, Harlan Principal, enjoyed every moment of the event and was so thankful for the boost that it gave to the students towards the end of a challenging year. “I am so proud of how hard these students have worked to overcome adversity this year. Each child is a deserving recipient, and we are so grateful have community partners like Listerhill and their program sponsors and donors. We thank Listerhill for making this wonderful event happen.”
