Community Service Announcement – Protective Shoes 2020
In the world’s poorest countries, one person is diagnosed with leprosy every two minutes!
But for many the damage is already done and they need protective shoes to prevent further, permanent disability.
Things like working in the fields or collecting water from a well barefoot are dangerous.
Protective shoes can be the difference between self-sufficiency and deeper poverty.
You can help Save 10,000 Soles and give someone affected by leprosy protective shoes this Christmas. Go to leprosymission.org.au.
