Celebrating Leah’s “Gotcha” Day

Posted on November 3, 2019 by Shannon Ballard

10 years ago, a toddler named Leah came to live with Scott & Michelle Houser, forever changing their lives in the best way possible. To celebrate the 10 year anniversary of Leah’s “Gotcha” Day, the Housers (the family behind the GB Shoes Warehouse brand) are throwing a Foster Family Celebration, and you’re invited to the party.

This Saturday (Nov. 9th), when you buy a pair of shoes, a pair of shoes will be donated to a foster kid in our community. The hope is to collect 500 or more pairs; wouldn’t that be amazing?! Plus, to say thanks, there’s a 20% discount on your entire purchase, too. Be sure to bring the kids because there will be face-painting, fairy hair, and all kinds of other cool stuff!

Scott & Michelle sat down with Tammy to talk about their life-changing journey with Leah.
