Laces of Love

Join us to support a local Naples charity – Laces of Love. One of our family members  – Jim Duyser, was a Physical Education teacher at Shadowlawn Elementary School(Naples, FL) for 29 years. He and his students shared a mutual love and respect for each other. Long before Laces of Love Jim and Anne Duyser provided tennis shoes to students in his classes when he was aware that they needed them. After his death a fund was set up to continue this effort. That fund merged with Laces of Love a few years later. We want to continue our family legacy and are proud to pledge, that we will donate a portion of our earnings from each booking to Laces of Love.

The Laces of Love Charitable Foundation, Inc. is a 501-c-3 not-for-profit organization that provides new shoes to low-income and disadvantaged children and educates the public about the needs of these children. Since its incorporation in 2005, Laces of Love has provided over 200,000 kids in need with new shoes in Southwest Florida.
