Tucson Couple Gifts 250 Shoes for Kids | Tucson News

In Tucson, Gerry and Wanda Buchanan are making waves by sponsoring 125 new pairs of shoes for kids — matched by another sponsor for a total of 250 — as part of A Better Community’s Back to School Bash. This year’s event, July 29th from 5–7 PM at the Dunbar Pavilion, adds free haircuts and mental health support for families, expanding beyond just supplies to holistic support. Everything — shoes, backpacks, food, and services — is free, ensuring kids start school ready to learn and thrive. It’s a powerful reminder of how community action can transform lives, one pair of shoes and one supportive service at a time.
