Party with a Purpose


Help make communities healthier! Hosting a party in support of Sole Hope is a fun and easy way to get involved with The D. Gary Young, Young Living Foundation! Get together with your team, friends, and family to cut up old jeans to make shoes for individuals who have received treatment and education at The D. Gary Young, Young Living Foundation Hope Center.




Shoe-cutting Parties

Creating shoes for Sole Hope requires all hands on deck, starting with yours! Shoe parties give you the opportunity to support Sole Hope’s goal of helping people affected by jiggers. You and your friends can spend the evening learning about their mission as you turn gently used denim into pieces that local tailors and shoemakers in Uganda will use to make shoes. Those shoes—with your fabric—then go on the feet of patients to help them live healthier lives free from jiggers.
