Two Vanderbilt football players are starting their summer on the right foot, making the daily walk a little easier for Jamaican children in need.

Linebackers Emmanuel Smith and Josh Smith are part of a delegation of 20 Vanderbilt athletes participating in a service trip to Jamaica in connection with Soles4Souls, the university announced.

In Jamaica, the athletes will visit schools and distribute shoes to children. The group arrived in Jamaica on Sunday and will remain in the Caribbean for the following week.

The school posted photos Monday morning of their arrival.

Good morning from Jamaica!
