A huge high five to all our students who continue to work hard to give back to others! #Repost @stunewslaguna with @make_repost For the third year, Laguna Beach High School senior Jessie Rose will hold her Annual Shoe Drive to benefit Soles4Souls. Soles4Souls is a nonprofit social enterprise that creates sustainable jobs and provides relief through the distribution of shoes and clothing around the world. In the past two years, Jessie has collected more than 900 pairs of... shoes, and her goal this year is to surpass 500. The deadline for shoe donations is February 15. Jessie, who has committed to play water polo for the University of California, Berkeley in the fall, will likely continue the drive with her water polo team, and her brother, who attends LBHS, will continue the drive next year.
