Nebo Credit Union “Warms the Soles” for Nebo Students
For twenty-one Christmases, Nebo Credit Union, with the help of local businesses and community members, has organized the “Warm the Soles,” a fundraiser to provide new shoes for students. Beginning in 1999 with only 25 pairs of shoes, the effort has grown to providing over 9,000 pairs of shoes in the last decade for students in 45 Nebo schools.
With planning beginning in January, teachers search for students in need, get their shoe size, and send the information to Nebo Credit Union. Nebo Credit Union employees, in turn, purchase the shoes right before Christmas. After the shoes have been wrapped, they are delivered to the appropriate school.
