Walk in My Boots

As cold frigid temperatures hit Michigan in the past weeks, Toyota Motor- North America stepped in for the 11th consecutive year to support the local Detroit community through its “Walk in My Boots” community outreach project.

On Saturday, January 15, 2022, over 150 family members in need from The Salvation Army Conner Creek Corps & Community Center received new, insulated winter boots and socks to help shield families from the cold.

Winter is the often the hardest time of year for many low-income families.  When temperatures drop below freezing, people are at severe risk for hypothermia to set in and consequences can be fatal.  While some programs offer winter coat, hat and glove giveaways, a person’s feet are often left exposed as many families take the bus or walk in harsh elements. 

The Connor Creek Corps Community Center offers a place of respite, refuge, peace, and prayer for the entire community. To learn about The Salvation Army in your community, visit SALVATIONARMYUSA.ORG
