JCHS Girls Lax Teams Partner with "Lace up with Lax"

For the second year in a row, Johns Creek High School Girls JV, Varsity, and Junior Gladiator Lacrosse Programs gathered new and gently used shoes for the Lace up with Lax Program. And in spite of the spring lacrosse season ending early last year due to COVID, the programs successfully provided 50 pairs of shoes and over 500 pairs of socks to benefit the Foster Care Support Foundation.

The original project began in 2013 with a single school in Atlanta (Pope High School). Since inception, the Lace Up With LAX model has spread to over 100 teams in high schools, colleges, universities and independent lacrosse programs in the United States, Canada and England mostly by word of mouth or through their website: www.laceupwithlax.org donating nearly 5,000 shoes to those in need.

The Johns Creek High School Girls Lacrosse programs were pleased to be a part of Lace Up With LAX for the second year in a row donating shoes and socks from lacrosse players, coaches, spectators and the community donating and bringing new pairs of shoes for children who are in need. The mission of this national nonprofit organization is to define the legacy of our players off the field by helping end homelessness one step at a time.”
