Last week Inspired Hearts and Hands held its annual Summerfest for the Butler Area School District.
For the last four years Inspired Hearts has given out school supplies to the students of Butler Area School District. But they also offer often overlooked items like new shoes and clothing , which can make a huge difference for students, according to Inspired Heats and Hands Founder and Executive Director Mindy Schnitgen.
“There’s a lot of confidence that comes when your clothes and shoes fit, and you have clean underwear and socks,” Schnitgen said. “It sounds pretty trivial but it’s a big thing. It sets the mood and the stage from step one.”
Schnitgen said that her organization spends all year planning for this event. But Inspired Hearts and Hands also offers other programming and services throughout the year. Schnitgen says for those who are interested or in need of assistance, they can reach out to the school or school principal for more information on serivces.
