Soul to Sole Program honored by BGCA Midwest Region

The Soul to Sole Program of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Lorain County was honored recently by receiving the Midwest Region Area Council Award for Outstanding Program for 2007.

Soul to Sole, founded and directed by Mrs. Lori Campana, provides shoes to children from families with minimal financial resources. It is estimated that more than 2,000 pairs of Starbury shoes have been distributed since the programs beginning.

Financial support for Soul to Sole has come from Lorain, Erie and Cuyahoga counties, and it is hoped that the program will be replicated by other Boys & Girls Clubs around the nation.
Congratulations to Mrs. Campana and the Soul to Sole program!
