About this Nominee
We are a non-profit dedicated to providing a NEW pair of athletic shoes to students in Kalamazoo county elementary schools (grades PreK-5th) at no cost. Our mission is driven by passionate staff and volunteers of this great community and funded by individuals, businesses, foundations, and corporations.
There’s a moment that happens when a child gets a NEW pair of quality shoes. Their faces light up and their eyes smile. They wiggle their toes and flex their feet. In this moment, they are empowered to put their best foot forward.
These actions speak of joy, confidence, excitement, and so much more. We organize ourselves so that we can give as many children that moment as possible.
Everything we do is in service to our youth in Kalamazoo County and we couldn’t be more proud or grateful to be supporting this community.
