If you'd like to donate...

Some friends and family members out of state (and some in-state) have asked how to help without actually sending shoes/socks. Here's your answer!

To help us raise enough shoes for our lofty goal of 100 NEW pairs of shoes by August 9, you can simply donate money by clicking the link below.  We will post about all donations and show pictures of our Super Heroes buying new socks and shoes with the money you've donated to share with Shoes 4 the Shoeless! Thank you so much! Up and Awayyy!

Living Dayton Show


We had a great time sharing about Super Heroes of Service on Living Dayton today! Who knew we'd get to actually pet Paula the Penguin from Newport Aquarium?? Now that was cool! Thanks for all who watched! If you missed it, you can watch it at http://www.wdtn.com/dpp/living_dayton/family/super-heroes-of-service#.Ue2GQBZBrIo

As for the shoe drive, our cousin Shawn Frye, who inpart inspired us to do a shoe drive for Shoes 4 the Shoeless, gave us a great idea... When she raised shoes for this organization, she had several families donate a pair of shoes for each immediate family member in each of their shoe sizes! That sounds great to us! Also, we've had some out of state inquiries wanting to know how they can donate without mailing a box of shoes... I'm working on something for that and will get back to you with what we come up with!

If you'd like to check out shoes 4 the shoeless, please check them out at shoes4theshoeless.org (the website posted on Living Dayton was spelled wrong).

Up and AWWAYYY!!!

Details for Mission 2: Shoe Drive





Mission Two: Shoes 4 the Shoeless
After a very successful mission of collecting exactly 100 books for Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, our Super Heroes have decided to tackle a much BIGGER project and we REALLY need your help! We will be collecting NEW athletic shoes and socks (sizes 10 Youth- 13 adult) for school-age children and will be presenting them to a great local organization, Shoes 4 the Shoeless on August 12, 2013 (please check them out at their website: shoes4theshoeless.org). An estimated 15,000 children in the Dayton area alone do not have appropriate fitting shoes and we find that unacceptable! Read on to find out how you can help our Super Heroes make a difference in the lives of others!


Drop off location, dates and times
If you’d like to help us reach our  goal of raising at least 100 NEW pairs of shoes, here’s how you can help! You can drop off shoes and/ or socks at  Southwest Church Worship and Community Center, located at 150 Remick Blvd, Springboro 45066 by the YMCA. 

Drop off days are Mondays through Saturdays (between the hours of 7:30am- 6:00pm. If the church is closed, please place your donation in the marked box "For Super Heroes of Service." Items left in the box will be collected frequently. If these times do not work or you would like to drop off to an official Super Hero, we’d be more than happy to arrange another drop off time. Simply email us at       
superheroesofservice1@gmail.com

Our  final pick up date will be Friday, August 9. This mission will only be successful with your help so please help us by giving and sharing our mission! 

**If your child would like to participate in this mission, we will be having tables set up at the Mall for our children to dress as super heroes and collect shoes. We will also have some specific times for our Super Heroes to be at the church, taking shoe donations. More details with dates and times coming this week. Please check back on the blog for this information. You can also feel free to email me if they are interested.

Please email us at superheroesofservice1@gmail.com with any questions! Up and Awwayyy!!!!

Sneak Preview of our next BIG mission! (And other really cool news!)

I was really hoping to post last night with all the details of our next BIG mission, but unfortunately  I'm still waiting to get a few things settled before I can give all the details. It may be another day or so before all the details are ironed out so I thought I'd tell you the gist and then update with the details.

For a little background, last year, our cousin Shawn did a really cool thing. For her birthday, she had a really big party and invited a TON of people. The one thing she wanted was for all her guests to bring a pair of new athletic shoes and/or socks for a school aged child. Then she shared all the shoe/sock donations with a super cool local organization, Shoes 4 the Shoeless.  Please be sure to check them out at shoes4theshoeless.org!

So, we contacted Shoes 4 the Shoeless and asked if our Super Heroes could hold a shoe/sock drive to help them out. They were so excited that our super heroes wanted to help!! They told us that approximately 15,000 children in the Dayton area alone are without shoes or only have shoes that are way too small. So this is our next BIG mission! Our goal is to raise AT LEAST 100 pairs of new athletic shoes (sizes 10youth-13 adult). It's a pretty lofty goal for some pint sized Super Heroes, but if anyone can do it, they can! right!? Of course THEY CAN!!

As for the details.... Stay tuned and you can find out how your child can be a Super Hero in this mission and how/when we'll be collecting and delivering those shoes....

Okay, ready for the other REALLY BIG NEWS????? In order to promote our Super Heroes and this BIG mission, we have been invited to appear on the local live TV show, LIVING DAYTON, on Monday, July 22, 2013!!! Aaagghhh!! Our Super Heroes could not be more excited!!!! Unfortunately, the show requested that only 2-3 Super Heroes make an appearance, so we found it appropriate that it be the the founding Super Heroes: Quinn, Maddison and Caelen. Way to go kiddos! And what a great present as that is Super Hero Maddison's 5th Birthday!

Stay tuned for more details!! Up and Awwaayyyy!!

Can't hardly wait to share our next mission!

Okay, so I know it's been awhile since we've posted but that doesn't mean we haven't been working feverishly to come up with our next BIG mission and lay the ground work for it. This is going to be so much bigger than the first, did I mention WE ARE SOOO EXCITED ABOUT THIS ONE??!
We have also been working on laying the groundwork for several smaller missions. We will be posting hopefully tonight with a lot of good stuff! Stay tuned!!! Up and Awayyyy!
