New Shoes and Wealth Wednesday

Have you ever heard of “Wealth Wednesday”? It is a term that I personally heard the first time from Ray Higdon (rayhigdon.com). He and his wife, Jessica, help inspire entrepreneurs to play bigger and make a positive impact on others. In one of their groups they offer a Facebook live every day and on Wednesdays there is a reminder that it is “Wealth Wednesday” and are firm believers if you give, you will receive. If that means you pay for the person behind you in the drive through or slide money in a box of diapers on the shelf, then do it. No one needs to know what you did, because no matter how small, you have the ability to make a difference in the life of someone else, just by giving.  

This past Wednesday I was reminded how much little things we take for granted and how those small things could impact the life of a child. My granddaughter goes to a local elementary school. In the school year 2018-19, there were 329 students attending the school. Of those students, 86% were eligible for free or reduced breakfast and lunch. A local member of our community (anonymously) purchased every child in the school a new pair of shoes. Can you imagine the smiles that a pair of sketchers brought to those children? When I messaged Ray about this, he said that not only was that awesome, but what a blessing! I am sure the parents and the children are all grateful! And yes, they began putting the shoes on the children on Wednesday, Wealth Wednesday!

I would love to see the face of the donor when they receive all of the thank you notes from the children and parents.
