With a heart for those in need, high school student Christian Glover is not only running hard for the Bolles Cross Country team, but also running his own campaign to shoe the shoeless.

Hoping to deliver a high purpose beyond the typical preseason party for his cross country teammates, Glover, a senior at The Bolles School, contacted Soles4Souls, a nonprofit global social enterprise committed to fighting poverty through the collection and distribution of shoes and clothing.

With the help of his parents, friends and fellow cross country teammates, Glover initiated a donation drive seeking lightly used running shoes, which he will continue to collect and deliver to a collection and distribution center throughout the school year. Eventually the shoes will be given to those in poverty around the globe through worldwide distribution channels.
