How It Works
ONE
Collect gently worn, used and new shoes from your community and supporters—every pair counts.
TWO
We pick up your shoes and ship them to micro-entrepreneurs who sell them in their communities.
THREE
You get a check based on the total pounds of shoes collected and celebrate your fundraiser’s impact!
The more you collect, the more you get paid! Don’t forget to ask our team about how you can earn up to 25% more on your fundraising check.
Why a Shoe Drive is the Perfect School Fundraiser

- Student-led groups like FBLA, FCCLA, and Beta Club to complete service projects
- Clubs and student programs to raise money creatively, without selling candy or merchandise

What Makes a Shoe Drive Fundraiser Different?
A shoe drive does more than raise money—it creates impactful and teachable moments. Educate your students about:
- The reuse economy
- Sustainability and environmental stewardship
- Turning shoes into dollars
- Social entrepreneurship in developing countries
- The power of collective action
Best of all, the shoes you collect are shipped to micro-enterprises in developing countries, where they help small business owners (many of whom are women) build better lives. Raise funds locally, keep shoes out of landfills, and improve livelihoods in global communities.
