Between running multiple business ventures, filming her reality show, sitting in hair and makeup for hours a day, taking too many selfies, and raising two young kids, Kim Kardashian has proven herself quite the multitasker. And now she can add two more concurrent activities to that list: Breastfeeding and charity work!
Late Wednesday night, Kardashian took to Twitter to express her desire to donate to a young girl she’d seen on television while feeding her newborn son, Saint. According to Kardashian’s tweets, the unnamed girl had been trying to collect 1,000 pairs of shoes for a charity called Soles4Souls—which apparently had helped her out after the Hurricane Katrina disaster in 2005.
I’m up breastfeeding & watching this show Dish Nation. I heard the cutest story of a girl who is trying to find 1000 pairs of shoes -cont-

to donate to this charity Soles For Souls! They helped her during Hurricane Katrina. I think I know the designer of Shoe of the Year Award!

Though she wasn’t immediately able to track down the recipient (kind of difficult with an infant latched onto you, I suppose), Kardashian made it clear that she and husband Kanye West—who was recently honored as the designer of Footwear News’s “Shoe of the Year”—would gladly donate 1,000 pairs of shoes to ensure the girl would reach her goal.
Kanye and I would love to donate those 1000 shoes to Soles For Souls.

By the way, that’s 1,000 pairs of Adidas Yeezys—as in, the almost impossible-to-get-your-hands-on sneaker that sells out instantaneously each time a new version is released.
So all you naysayers can bash the #worldsmosttalkedaboutcouple as much as you’d like… but because of them, we have a feeling a lot of deserving and generally disadvantaged people are going to be extremely happy this holiday season. You go, KKW.
