Sneakers are a vital need for children and teens, and 85% of our partners report that they’re the most requested item. Together, we can meet this critical need and ensure every child has a pair of shoes that fit so they can run, jump, play and walk in comfort.
Here’s How You Can Help:
- Adopt a Child: Choose to donate a pair of NEW sneakers in a specific size to meet the needs of a child or teen in our community. Click here to choose a child from our pending requests who needs a pair of sneakers.
- Organize a Sneaker Drive: Rally your friends, family, coworkers, or community group to collect sneakers. It’s a fun and impactful way to give back together. The key phrase we use is “shoes should be in clean, wearable condition ready for immediate distribution.”
Our annual drive runs from January through February but sneaker need is a year–round reality. We welcome your efforts now and throughout the year.
Your support will make a difference for children and teens in our community. Let’s lace up and step into action to ensure every child has the shoes they need to succeed!
