Coras Vision

Hello everyone, welcome to our official fundraising page! We are excited because we are officially recognized as a 501c3 nonprofit organization in the state of Virginia. Cora’s Vision is the name of our nonprofit, but a lot of you may know us by the name, Fast Forward Shoe Drive, which is the name of our annual shoe drive for kids in need.

Our mission is to move kids forward through shoes by building confidence and eliminating bullying. Since 2018, we have been providing shoes to kids in need before the school year begins. In 2021, we expanded our back to school event to include food, backpacks, and school supplies. To date, we have impacted more than 350 students in need.

As a nonprofit, we wish to expand our mission and reach more kids in the Hampton Roads community. Expanding our mission will include taking the annual shoe drive to different cities and giving back multiple times per year, introducing new programs that will promote confidence and self esteem building techniques, and a book club to promote reading.

In order to expand, we need your help. Now is a great time to get involved if you want to make a difference. Our goal for 2023 is to raise funds that will allow us to launch new programs at the end of the year and the beginning of 2024. Will you help us expand?
