A Lifetime in Footwear

Categories: Community Stories

June recently turned 85. Her husband of 59 years spent his career making and selling shoes until he passed away a few years ago. That coupled with Covid wiped out her savings and left her on the verge of homelessness. She turned to her friends at Atlanta Shoe Market who gave her a job and encouraged her to call Two Ten. We were able to provide her with the deposit she needed to get her into an apartment and back on her feet. She was kind enough to send us this note and asked that we share it.
