The Deborah Collier Memorial Shoe Fund is at the heart of JWA’s mission to support children in need across Macon County. Working closely with school personnel, we identify students in need of basic essentials and ensure they receive them with dignity and care.

 

What began as a program to provide shoes has grown to include socks and undergarments. We strive to help children feel confident, comfortable, and ready to thrive in and out of the classroom.

 

In addition, the fund partners with local schools to provide properly fitting foundation garments for young women participating in athletics, supporting their health, comfort, and continued involvement in sports.

Together, we’re helping children take confident steps forward: one pair of shoes at a time.
