The Sneaker Project

From worn to new! 🏃‍♂️ The Sneaker Project is available to partners & summer school students all summer.

The Sneaker Project doesn't pause in the summer. Not even for our most adorable fundraiser!! Thank you, thank you!! ♥👟👟😎

Why the big smiles? The Sneaker Project Board is showing off the certificate for 4,170 pounds of shoes YOU helped us collect, which equates to $2,355 for new sneakers for Central MO youth!!👟👟♥😊

Shoes collected + these volunteers= $2355 for new shoes for Central MO kids!!

The Sneaker Project in Denver? What?? Why?? When shoes are needed we order from wherever the heck we are!!❤️👟👟✈️

These 4200 pairs of donated shoes translate to 💶💶💶 for new sneakers for children in Central Mo!! Saturday we’ll learn just how much!!

Socks!? Yes! Several hundred pairs were collected by Capital City High School students to accompany new shoes going to students in need in Jefferson City. Pictured are STUCO students and the 170 pairs of socks shared with the local Boys and Girls Clubs. Many thanks!!!

Another huge shoutout to the Community Foundation of the Lake for their generous grant! Thanks to their support, $2,500 in brand‑new shoes will be going to children in Miller County. What a win for our community!
