Sneakers for Soldiers started as a gesture of motherly love. Now, it is a volunteer operation to send shoes to thousands of military members in imminent danger zones.
Deborah and John Hausladen have been married for 43 years. And though they have two children, they have treated thousands of active duty military members as their own.
But one pair of shoes was not enough to meet the greater need. The Malvern couple formed the nonprofit, Sneakers for Soldiers, to provide footwear for more troops like their son., who provides shoes at a discounted cost and offers the basement of their Media location as a shipping hub. The Hausladens typically never get to meet the soldiers who receive their care packages. However, that changed when they were introduced to Will Jones, a selected reservist with the United States Navy who lives in Chester Springs.
His wife heard about Sneakers for Soldiers and helped to facilitate a special delivery for her husband.
