Red Sneaker Day Spotlight: Carolyn Vernon

Red Sneaker Days provides a “day” when everyone wears their red sneakers/shoes (or anything red) and participates together to raise awareness for the dangers of food allergies. The goal is not only to increase education and awareness to the communities of those suffering with food allergies, but just as importantly, to educate those who are not directly affected by them.

Carolyn hosted a Red Sneaker Day at her school, Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart in New Jersey. Carolyn hosted an assembly for the upper campus of her school where she was able to share Oakley’s story and Red Sneakers for Oakley’s mission. She encouraged other students to get involved and educated on the dangers of food allergies.
