Most of us can’t fathom what it would be like to lack something as basic as a pair of shoes, but for millions of people around the world, that’s an everyday reality. For countless more, it’s a sudden and devastating consequence of a natural disaster.
Health
Without shoes, people are vulnerable to scrapes, cuts, bacteria and parasites that can lead to infection and other serious illnesses.
Education & Employment
Kids without shoes often can’t attend school and adults can’t work.
Dignity
New shoes give people the feeling of joy and dignity they deserve.
1 dollar = 1 pair
We partner with women’s shelters, veterans’ organizations, children’s programs and schools to get shoes and clothing to those who need it most.
