Elmhurst Nonprofit Collects Shoes for
Children in Africa
TribLocal Elmhurst, IL — Imagine walking out the door and not having a pair of shoes to wear. Treading over rough roads, stones, thorns or even broken glass to get to school. That’s what Rich Rosenberg observed two years ago when he visited a school in Tanzania and noticed that half the students were not wearing shoes.
Rosenberg was on a safari in Africa when he took a side trip to a rural school and had a conversation with school leaders about their students’ needs.
