While resources for the homeless continue to increase, Fred Jordan Missions has been on the forefront of providing help and hope to Los Angeles' hungry and homeless for more than 75 years.

"We feed over 100 homeless people a day and homeless children often feel forgotten," Joe Jordan, Fred Jordan Missions' President, said. "But today every child is a VIP and gets their own brand-new pair of shoes, outfit, backpack full of school supplies along with some Disney magic sprinkled in. For many of these boys and girls, this will be their very first pair of brand-new shoes. My Mom, Willie Jordan, started the Giveaway 31 years ago because she too didn't have shoes to wear as a child. From that moment on, she has been dedicated to helping change a child's life - one pair of shoes at a time."

More than 100 Foot Locker associates, dressed in their signature black-and-white striped uniforms, will personally fit each child with new sneakers under a 50-foot Striper balloon.

Foot Locker associates will then escort each child to tables piled with gifts of new clothing, backpacks, school supplies and hygiene kits.

"Foot Locker has been the anchor partner for Fred Jordan Missions' annual Back-to-School Giveaway for more than 30 years, a relationship we are fortunate to be continuing this year," said Tony Aversa, Vice President of Customer Experience and Sales at Foot Locker, North America. "Our associates are from this community, so serving and connecting with the Los Angeles youth is of the utmost importance to our team at Foot Locker, Inc."

Disney will also surprise children with different gifts and treats throughout the day.

To top it all off, In-N-Out will bring their signature food trucks to serve the children and their parents a delicious burger hot-off-the-grill.

To round out the experience, participants will visit Paul Mitchell'stent where stylists will cut and style each child's hair.

This event kicks-off the Mission's "Season of Caring" which brings hope to the streets of Skid Row bringing holidays, food, clothing and toys for homeless children and their families.
