Project Shoes-N-Clothes

Providing necessities for an all girls elementary school in Afghanistan

Army medic William Seo is very active in humanitarian efforts where he is stationed in Afghanistan. One of his goals is to provide for Afghan girls. Seo writes: "We are committed to provide 200 elementary school children with a pair of running shoes and Afghan traditional clothes (top and bottom), plus school supplies."

In addition to clothing and shoes, Seo hopes to distribute school supplies to the girls' school to better their educational experience. Something as simple as a backpack and school supplies can make a world of difference.
