We can do more good when we do it together When people lack the resources to get through today, it’s difficult for them to focus on tomorrow. Soles4Souls turns shoes and clothing into opportunities for education and employment so they can have a more hopeful future. We exist to end wasted potential.

At Soles4Souls, we create opportunity for people through shoes and clothing — keeping usable goods in play and helping people move forward in education, work, and life. How we help people step forward By diverting new and used shoes and clothing from landfills, we turn excess into relief for those in crisis, opportunity for communities, confidence for kids, and a healthier planet for all. A step towards self-sufficiency.

When we equip entrepreneurs in low-income countries with donated shoes and clothing to sell, we help them create sustainable small businesses that lift families out of poverty and drive community growth. A fresh start begins with the basics. We provide new shoes and clothing to people facing hardship—from survivors of natural disasters to those rebuilding their lives after homelessness or domestic violence.

These essentials help restore dignity and ease financial burdens, so people can focus on what’s next. Confidence from the ground up. We partner with schools and community organizations to provide new athletic shoes to children experiencing homelessness, removing barriers to school participation, sports, and a brighter future.

Through sorting, grading, recommerce, repurposing, repairing, and responsible end of life solutions, we extend the life of shoes and clothing to maximize their impact while reducing environmental waste. 83. 1 MILLION pairs of donated shoes and pieces of clothing.
