Stepping Up: The Heart and Sole of Shoes 4 Kids   Shoes 4 Kids is a signature project for the Putnam and Green County Rotary Club. This initiative enables the club to supply 120 children with a brand-new pair of shoes, a backpack, and a pair of socks for students in Putnam and Greene Counties. For some of these kids, this will be their very first pair of new shoes, making it a truly impactful experience. By meeting these essential needs, you can enhance their learning opportunities.   This project not only fulfills a practical need but also boosts the children's confidence and self-esteem, knowing they have the necessary resources to participate fully in school activities. Furthermore, Shoes 4 Kids aligns with the Rotary Club's broader mission of service and community support, fostering a sense of care and solidarity among local residents. The impact of this initiative reaches beyond the immediate recipients, as it inspires others in the community to contribute and support similar causes.   Each year, volunteers come together to make this event a success, from fundraising efforts to organizing distribution days. This collaboration not only strengthens community bonds but also provides an opportunity for members to engage in meaningful service. As these children step into their new shoes, they carry with them not just a tangible gift, but the knowledge that their community supports and believes in their potential.   Thanks for listening.  

Please take a minute to share with your friends, family, and colleagues.

Remember that Putnam Proud will highlight unique programs, innovative strategies, the wonderful families, focused students, graduates and their journeys, and successful staff and team members. There is so much to share.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
