Without shoes, children are especially vulnerable to soil-transmitted diseases and parasites that can cause illness and even death. Children who get sick miss school, can’t help their families, and suffer needlessly. And since children’s feet grow so quickly, they often outgrow donated shoes within a year, leaving them once again exposed to illness and disease. The Shoe That Grows can change all that.
Ludi is 12 years old, and lives in Haiti. Her lifelong dream is to grow up to be a teacher. But school is 5 miles away, and shoes are required to attend. Some years, Ludi had shoes and could go. Other years, she didn’t. Now, because of The Shoe That Grows, Ludi always has a pair of shoes that fit. She can attend school and pursue her dreams. Click below to share about The Shoe
Do you want to help change a kid’s life?
We work with non-profits, churches, schools, and individuals to get The Shoe to kids living in poverty. Perhaps your organization already serves children, and you’re looking for more ways to help. Or maybe you’re traveling to an impoverished area and know you could make a HUGE difference with a single duffel bag of The Shoe That Grows. Whatever the case, we’d love to partner with you to get shoes to those children. The Shoe is easy to transport and makes a big impact. Please contact us below to learn more!
"Communication was super easy and we were even able to get in touch with the founder, Kenton Lee! The shoe is designed to fit the needs of kids perfectly. It was a wonderful experience to be able to help kids who had never owned their own pair of shoes put these on."
"There were some shipping complications the day before I was supposed to leave for Haiti but The Shoe That Grows worked miracles to get the shoes to us on time, and free of charge. Amazing customer service and amazing shoes!"
"The people I dealt with at your organization were lovely and the shoes themselves are FABULOUS. The rural villagers in Cameroon who I delivered them to LOVE the shoes."
