Sole Hope Update
The Arvada Sunrise Rotary Club's Sole Hope Grant united an inspiring group of over 150 volunteers, ranging in age from 6 to 104, in a remarkable hands-on international project that truly embodies compassion and collaboration. Together, they carefully cut over 7,500 pieces of upcycled denim in the United States, which were then sent to Uganda, where skilled tailors transformed them into over 630 pairs of shoes. These shoes, often the first ones these children have ever owned will protect their feet from painful, debilitating jigger infestations. Sole Hope Organization runs clinics for medical and education efforts in Jinga, Uganda by providing them with these life-changing shoes. This incredible initiative was made possible thanks to the collective efforts of Broomfield Crossing
Rotary, Five Points RiNo Rotary, and Arvada Rotary clubs demonstrating teamwork's power across generations to change lives. For more details about Sole Hope's mission and impact, visit
