Every child deserves a good pair of shoes
That's why the 5 Rotary Districts across Ohio are coming together to ensure that students experiencing homelessness in local public schools have a new pair of high-quality, well-fitting shoes. New shoes give kids the opportunity to participate more fully in school and free up resources their caregivers can use for other necessities.

How will the funds be used?
All funds raised through this campaign will stay in Ohio to serve local students. A minimum of one school district in each Rotary District will receive shoes to provide to students identified as experiencing homelessness. Every $20 raised = 1 student served.
Why give shoes to kids without homes?
While many organizations are focused on the critical needs of food and shelter, school officials tell us shoes are essential for students to succeed in school.
A good pair of shoes can change a child’s future. Kids who receive new shoes have more confidence, attend school more regularly, and are more physically active.
