CNN Hero: Nicholas Lowinger

[@skadude113]

this kid is awesome. In an age where many people are complaining how they have last years phone, kids don't have very basic things like shoes. I have a lot of respect for this teenager.

Love the children's expressions when they get their shoes! God bless.

caring a little more about others is what we all should be doing. Awesome job Nicholas Lowinger. I hope you inspire 100 others to do something for someone else

As a community service project in 2010, Nick started Gotta Have Sole Foundation as a non-profit charitable organization. This year, he expanded the project to include veterans who are living at or below the poverty level. He's able to do this because of donations from shoe manufacturers, cash contributions to the foundation, and student-organized fundraisers at schools that have partnered with him. If you want to help make a difference, you can donate at his website: gottahavesole. org ty
