On the morning of Thursday, April 10, FedEx Puerto Rico employees partnered with the nonprofit Operation Warm to deliver 330 pairs of new shoes to children at Jesús María Sanromá Public School in Carolina. The initiative aims to ease the financial burden on local families while promoting students’ health and wellness through play and outdoor activities. This marks the third consecutive collaboration in Puerto Rico.
This event is part of a joint effort between FedEx and Operation Warm, which will deliver over 13,000 pairs of new shoes to students from more than 30 schools across the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and South America during the spring season.
Since 2008, FedEx and Operation Warm have collaborated through the global community engagement program FedEx Cares, connecting the passion and expertise of FedEx team members with the resources of nonprofit organizations to address local community needs.
Through initiatives like this, FedEx reaffirms its commitment to fostering positive change in the communities where its employees live and work, as part of its global campaign, Drive Forward, Give Back—an initiative that inspires extraordinary actions with significant impact worldwide.
