Through a partnership with Soles4Souls Dallas ISD students will receive new athletic shoes for students experiencing homelessness.

“Shoes matter in ways that are hard to understand until you don't have them. This will help keep them in school and feel like they are equal,” said Jean-Claude Saada, Cambridge Holdings founder and CEO.

With Cambridge Holdings and Lyda Hill Philanthropies efforts, Soles4Souls has raised 60% of its goal to provide shoes to all students in Dallas ISD for the upcoming school year. "Footwear is an item that, generally, cannot be purchased through grant funding, so this partnership and initiative is immensely important to fully support the needs of our homeless children and youth," said Dallas ISD District Homeless Liaison Ashley Marshall
