#OPERATION252 was established by Alec Virgil, a Wilson, NC native with a goal to give back to his home community. #OPERATION252 was put in place to provide a brand new pair of shoes to 252 school-aged children during the Winter Holiday season.
A brand new pair of shoes will boost the self-esteem of children. They will perform better academically and socially when they feel better about how they look. This year, the goal is to collect brand new shoes so that on December 17, families will come to Fike High School for a new pair for their child to wear, for free.
It takes a village to raise a child. Let's all play our part. You can give today!
Only 54% of Americans know CPR. 1 in 6 people do not know that chest compressions can help to save a life in a moment of cardiac arrest. About half know little to nothing about their personal heart health. Americans need to be more knowledgeable about their health, as there are not many people, less than half (49%), who know little to nothing about heart health or first aid. There is a need for early education. Studies show that Millennials are falling behind on their knowledge of basic first aid skills and heart health.
Part of our commitment to address the needs of the community is general health improvement. Operation 252 Health will help the community become self-confident, self-directed, and successful in a healthy educational experience.
