The Celebrity Shoe Auction raised £44,700!
The Celebrity Shoe Auction was a huge success, raising enough to provide hundreds of children with shoes, so they can take their first steps out of landfills and into education. Find out which celebrities raised most! We even went on TV and revealed Chris Martin's shoe size!
We used funds o help children living on landfill sites in Cambodia, Laos and Romania as well as supporting refugees in France.

#WhereIsTheGlove
On Valentines Day we went to Paris, the city of love, to show some love to the refugees and lend a hand to our partners Care4Calais by doing a glove distribution. We then travelled down to Calais and Dunkirk to help there too. Our Celebrity Ambassadors Helena Christensen and James Purefoy joined he campaign to help raise awareness. See Mary Claire's article and our album here.

Christmas at Takhmao & Kampot dumps, Cambodia
At Christmas we gave out presents and shoes to over 200 children. The children from Takhmao dump, who are all at our centre now. And the many children who live on Kampot dump. We were concerned that Santa might not know how to reach all these children, without chimneys, so we thought we should help out!

Cluj dump, Romania
Our amazing new partners: MyGumBoots make welly boots out of recycled gum! For every pair they sell, they are donating a pair of Gumboots to children in our Cluj dump project, Romania. Hedrin has also donated a big supply of lice treatment for all the kids products which is a recurring problem on the dump sites.
