Southlands Christian School in Rowland Heights is helping out the Hacienda Heights Kiwanis Club this morning by contributing $500 to their shoes for kids program.

The students have been collecting money for local kids since the school year began. Their generosity will allow the Kiwanis to buy many more shoes for needy children in the area.

The Christian school also collected toys for local families, as well as shoeboxes full of gifts for children in Mexico. They really have the Christmas spirit.
