Boys & Girls Clubs of Bellevue has been selected as an official partner of Payless Gives, an annual giving program from Payless ShoeSource.

Boys & Girls Clubs of Bellevue will be distributing coupons for shoes to children of families participating in the annual Adopt-a-Family Holiday Gift Program. Last year alone, donors in the Bellevue community adopted more than 87 families.

“In its third year, the goal of the Payless Gives Shoes 4 Kids program remains the same – to provide footwear, a basic necessity, to children who might otherwise go without,” said LuAnn Via, CEO of Payless. “The success of the program over the past two years, and the number of children and families we have been able to assist, continues to drive our efforts.”

Boys & Girls Clubs of Bellevue was established in 1952. Currently the organization has 14 sites throughout the City of Bellevue and serves children 2 ½ – 19 years of age.
