Prereading

basic
A much less creative organization, Small Steps Project, focuses simply on providing the most basic hygiene supplies and shoes to people in extreme need. This project was founded in the United Kingdom and funded by Beyonce, Madonna, George Clooney and Serena Williams. As the conditions that some children live in becomes more known, more and more people want to become involved in the Small Steps Project.
dumps
This project is dedicated to helping students who live in and around garbage dumps. These children often find food or make a living by scavenging in the trash to find leftover food and articles of value. The goals of the organization are to provide shoes to every child, so that they may take small steps toward a better life and to encourage children to become interested in improving the atmosphere around the garbage dumps.
slums
The organization works largely in Nairobi, where there are four major slums centred around large garbage dumps. The project has created a community garden, playground and nursery in these areas. There is also a water sanitation and hygiene system in place for the residents. In Nairobi, over one and a half million people live in these slums and have found benefits from these projects.
strife
Much of the funding is secured by a celebrity shoe auction, and many celebrities give their shoes to this cause. The highest-selling shoe in 2021 was an Asic tennis shoe worn by Novak Djokovic. The organization has also created many short films and videos to bring awareness to the terrible strife that people are living every day. This organization is quite proud of the work it has done so far, but the problem remains huge.
