Change lives while changing your own.
When you join a Soles4Souls Global Experience, you’ll:
Make new friendships with people you never would have known
See firsthand how shoes create opportunity for children and families
Explore your own purpose and values
Be inspired by passionate leaders
Serve alongside others who share your heart and passion
Have the most fun you’ve ever had
Here’s how you can join us on a Global Experience:
Host a 25k Shoe Drive
Earn a trip for two when you collect 25,000 pairs of shoes in a year. It sounds like a lot, but we’re here to help and have all the tools you need to get there.
Fundraise
Financial donations help us get shoes to the places where they are needed most. Raise funds to qualify for a Global Experience.
Brand Partnership
Work with our team on a custom campaign. Whether it’s a shoe drive, cause marketing campaign, or employee engagement initiative, your company could earn a trip.
“After beginning my commitment to provide shoes, I wholly embraced the idea and opportunity to travel with this wonderful organization to bring hope and light in a dark world. Every child I have encountered has melted my heart and strengthened my resolve to do as much as a can with what “little oil” I have. I have friends who have questioned my choice to schedule “vacations” to do work (they’ve said, “You already do so much work and provide so much help, take a vacation to a tropical island and go lay on a beach!”). But they really don’t comprehend (and I find it difficult to put into words they can understand) the passion that is ignited in me every time I step off a plane with Soles4Souls and their Global Experiences “missions” work.
And it’s not just the kids, parents, or community leaders that we meet in these distant locales; it’s the people I meet who are co-travelers with me who share an equal desire to meet the basic needs of others.
I have cried on the plane on my return trips to the States because sometimes I just want to remain in these distant locations and do the work I feel compelled to do: to bring joy and light into darkness.”
