“You know the old saying, ‘Give the shirt off your back?’ She literally gave the shoes off her feet,” Agnes says.“He said nobody would ever have given me shoes like that. And I said, Well I’m not everybody.’ And he was like. ‘Thank you so much,’ and I see him walking away and he’s walking away with pride,” Thomas describes.“If my shoes can help make the world a better place, you can have them,” she says.
