Little Flip Flops
for Little Souls

Families in Africa are struggling
to feed their children and often
do not have the resources to
provide their children with shoes
to protect their feet.

There are many children in Africa who are living without even a single pair of shoes. As they run and play barefoot these children are constantly exposed to parasites that enter the body through their feet, causing many health problems. Each day these children walk miles looking for food and water. CityTeam Ministries has started a new program called Little Flip Flops for Little Souls to collect and send flip flops to these suffering children in Africa and Asia.

Close to 92 percent of Kenyan children tested had parasites. We want to change this. A pair of shoes can make a huge difference in a child’s life by protecting their feet against disease and injury. What a special, gift for the child who has been enduring such suffering. One person can make a difference by donating flip-flops to CityTeam. It will mean so much to a child that has no shoes.

This is a great project that can be done by you as an individual or as a group.

Directions:

1. Purchase one or more pairs of brand new flip-flops in
   Children's sizes 0-13.
2. Remove sales tags
3. Cut out the provided gift tag and write an encouraging
   note on it to the child who will be receiving your shoes

4. Tie the two shoes together with a ribbon or string, ensuring
   that the CityTeam tag is attached.
5. Drop-off or mail the flip-flops to the CityTeam location of your
   choice. Please include $1 with each pair of your flip-flops
   for shipping costs, or $10 for 10 pairs of flip-flops!
