Weil Foot and Ankle’s Dr. Katerina Grigoropoulos started Sole Fit when she was a second-year podiatry student at the Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine. Sole Fit is an organization that promotes the importance of podiatric care and provides new, athletic shoes to underprivileged children in the community.
What Is Sole Fit?
Sole Fit is an organization that promotes the importance of podiatric care and provides new, athletic shoes and socks to underprivileged children.
As a podiatric physician, I believe it is crucial to establish a strong foundation for the community regarding podiatric health. I founded Sole Fit in 2015 and my goal is to expand this organization to other podiatry schools, residency programs and clinics in the nation. Our group is affiliated with a countrywide known organization named, Shoes That Fit. This organization aids us in sponsoring local elementary schools in need. The documents provided through the ‘Learn More About Sole Fit’ link below will further explain our mission, goals and affiliation with Shoes That Fit. I encourage you to join our mission to better aid children in our community, so they can have a healthy today and an even healthier tomorrow.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or suggestions. Thank you for your interest in learning more about Sole Fit!
Sincerely, Katerina Grigoropoulos, DPM, AACFAS Sole Fit Founder
CURRENT CAMPAIGN!! Please help us raise the funding in time!
Weil Foot and Ankle is excited to jumpstart the holiday season by giving back to the community! We have officially partnered up with Shoes That Fit, a national organization that helps provide new, fitting shoes to children from low-income families. Our chapter’s name is “Sole Fit- Weil Foot and Ankle” and our goal is to raise $3,500 by the end of 2021. These funds will help sponsor 100 children from a local, Chicagoland, elementary school. Each child will receive a new pair of brand name athletic shoes and 5 pairs of Bombas socks. Every $35 helps sponsor a child in need. The more money we raise, the more children we can sponsor. This is the first year we are participating in this charity, our hopes are to sponsor more children every year.
Sole Fit’s mission is to promote the importance of podiatric care and provide fitting shoes for children in our community, so they can have a healthy today and an even healthier tomorrow. Help us reach our goal by donating today!
