Kicks for Kids

Helping the future of our communities put their best feet forward, one pair of shoes at a time. 

During the next 24 hours, we ask that you consider making a gift to impact local children who need your support the most. All gifts, no matter how small, make a huge impact. Together we can help build a child's confidence, increase attendance rates and encourage active lifestyles in our community. 

So far, Kicks for Kids has given out over 4600 pairs of shoes and 18,000 pairs of socks. Help us continue this mission and impact more students in our local communities!

Let's break it down: 

Who?

We pick schools in Alabama and Tennessee that need new shoes the most. Providing shoes also ranges from giving to one grade to giving to the whole school.

What?

Students are given their pair from a variety of different name-brand athletic shoes.

When?

We focus on providing new shoes during the school year when kids need them most. 

Why?

Shoes are expensive, and kids outgrow them quickly. Because of this, shoes are often the most visible sign of poverty. Unfortunately, this creates a disparity among kids which can be divisive, embarrassing, and a pretext for bullying. By providing a child with a new pair of athletic shoes, we increase their self-esteem, encourage school participation, reduce prejudice, and give them an opportunity to reach their highest potential.
