Join a global movement to provide shoes, dignity, and opportunity for children, adults, and seniors.
Be One of the 1,000. Step Into Hope.
Shoes are more than footwear. They protect against disease, open doors to education, and help restore dignity. Yet, millions of people around the world still live without something as basic as a safe pair of shoes.
The 1,000 Samaritans Challenge
We’re inviting 1,000 compassionate Samaritans to step forward and raise funds that will directly provide shoes and hope to those in need.
-
Each Samaritan is encouraged to raise $2,500.
-
Together, 1,000 Samaritans will raise $2.5 million, providing over 1.2 million pairs of shoes globally.
When you become a Samaritan, you’re not just fundraising:
-
You’re restoring dignity.
-
You’re helping a child walk safely to school.
-
You’re giving a parent the ability to work without pain.
-
You’re helping seniors walk confidently and maintain their independence.
-
You’re telling families, “You are not forgotten.“
