It takes a whole community to help our young neighbors step forward with confidence.

To every single volunteer who gave their time, heart, and hands to this year’s Lace Up with Love INC sneaker drive and distribution: thank you!

From the unseen hours spent making reminder calls, sorting inventory, and organizing boxes, to the joyful moments spent greeting families, measuring tiny feet, and finding that perfect pair of new sneakers—you built a bridge of care for school-aged students across Derry Township and Lower Dauphin.

Equipping hundreds of local children with new sneakers and socks so they can walk into school with dignity is no small task. It took dozens of hands, hundreds of hours, and an abundance of love to make it all happen. You didn’t just give shoes—you let our neighbors know their community stands right beside them.
