Our new SparQ, Thea, is a graduate student in Public Health at USC. When not involved in academic pursuits, she spends her off-school time working with two incredible organizations, Safe Place for Youth and The Helpful Homegirls. Both these organizations work with those facing housing and food insecurity.

To honor Thea, the Steps of Hope Campaign aims to provide at least 150 pairs of shoes to those serviced by these two organizations.*

We are asking people for help in one of three ways:

• Drop off a pair of gently used shoes to the Safe Place for Youth Access Center located at 340 E. Sunset Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90291 on December 19th between 10am and 4pm, OR
• Purchase a pair of shoes from our Amazon Gift Registry, which will send the shoes to Thea for collection, OR
• Donate to our Steps of Hope Campaign page. With our match, your donation of $25 provides two pairs of shoes for those in need.

More than anything, we ask you, our community of donors and supporters, to spread the word about this campaign. Your voice is our voice, and together we can create change for a better world.

Thank you!
