Spread the word

Print one page. Change a kid's first day.

The fastest way to get pairs covered is somebody walking a piece of paper into a local business. Print the flyer, write in your own town and the number of kids waiting there, and hand it to someone. That's it — that's the whole job.

1 Download the flyer

One page, black and white friendly, with a QR code that opens our homepage. Print as many as you want — there's nothing to ask us for.

The Leslie's Laces flyer: logo, a photo of Leslie, blanks to write in how many kids are in your town, who we are, how it works, three ways to help, and a QR code.
The greyed (NUMBER) and (CITY) (STATE) show you where to write. The printed flyer leaves them blank — fill them in yourself for whichever town you're walking into.

Prints on plain letter paper. Write in the town and the number by hand before you hand it over.

2 Build your list of towns

Add every town you're covering — your own, the next one over, the whole county if you want. You'll get a printable list of the kids still waiting in those towns, with their ID numbers, to carry alongside the flyers.

Start typing and the towns with kids waiting will come up. Leave the town blank to take the whole state.

3 Hand it to somebody

You do not have to make a speech. Hand it over and let the page talk.

  • Local businesses — the ones with a community board by the door. Ask if you can pin one up.
  • Churches — a bulletin insert reaches a hundred families in one Sunday.
  • Anywhere people wait — barber shops, laundromats, coffee shops, the tire place.
  • Your own group — a work break room, a team chat, a Facebook group for your town.

If a business wants to cover several kids at once, they can email info@leslieslaces.org and we'll take care of the rest.

Leslie's Laces only exists at leslieslaces.org. We never DM, call, or text anyone asking for money. If you see us somewhere else asking for a payment, it isn't us — please tell us at info@leslieslaces.org.
