Imelda Marcos would've never sacrificed like this!
Miller says her first passion is children—she's been an educator for 28 years—but her second love is shoes. She has an entire room in her home devoted to her collection. But with a budget shortfall of up to $2 million looming, every librarian, bus driver, and health aid; three vice-principals; and 17 teachers in her tiny seven-school district are set to lose their jobs. Miller says she "couldn't sit back and watch this happening without coming up with some creative solution," so she decided to put her shoes up for "adoption" and charge $1,000 each.
Miller says every penny raised through her "Shoes to the Rescue" effort will go directly to the school district. Watch the video below for a brief tour of Miller's collection, and if you want to adopt a pair from her, click here.
