    SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WICS) — Elementary school students from Springfield will go shoe shopping on Friday.

    Around 120 students from Matheny-Withrow and Jane Addams Elementary School will have a shop for new shoes.

    The students will go shopping at Shoe Carnival.


    This is made possible due to the Share the Spirt Foundation.

    Share the Spirt Foundation has been providing new shoes to children for over 19 years.

    Officials say almost 18,000 pairs of shoes have been distributed and more events are being planned each year.
