Soles4Souls Canada

Soles4Souls Canada Our goal at Soles4Souls Canada is to collect one million pairs of shoes in every province in Canada.

Soles4Souls Canada offers an important service to children and adults in our community and around the world, who may not be able to afford a new pair of shoes, by collecting donations of gently worn shoes to provide to them. Your donations will ensure that children and adults will have the appropriate footwear for school, work and everything in-between. We need you, everyone in Ottawa to go and clean out your closets and donate your shoes through the month of April. With your simple donation we can help so many people here in our community and around the world. Our goal this year in Ottawa is to collect 200 Hundred thousand pairs of shoes. You can drop off your donations at many locations throughout the city including right here at City Hall on Lisgar street. For a list of drop odd locations you can visit Visit www.Soles4SoulsCanada for more details.

We believe every child deserves to start the school year with dignity, confidence, and opportunity.

A new pair of shoes can help a student feel ready to walk into the classroom, join in at recess, and step into the year ahead alongside their peers. That's why we're on a mission to send kids back to school with brand new shoes of their own.

Thanks to our partnership with , owner of The Shoe Co, DSW and Rubino, we hosted in-store shopping events across Canada this Back to School season, and this video captures exactly why this work matters.

We’re grateful for every partner and community that helped make it happen.

Together with Designer Brands, owner of The Shoe Co, DSW and Rubino, we hosted in-store shopping events in 9 cities across Canada, giving 450 kids the chance to pick out a brand new pair of shoes, just in time for Back to School.

For too many kids, not having a reliable pair of shoes becomes a barrier to school, sports, and everyday confidence. A new pair of shoes can change that, giving kids the comfort and confidence to step into the school year ready for anything.

We are so grateful for the partners and communities who made this possible. This is what stepping forward looks like. 👟

Just $20 gives one more kid a brand new pair of shoes for back to school. Purchase a pair today at https://hubs.la/Q04rRpSH0 and help even more kids step into the school year with confidence.

We are extremely grateful for our partners who step forward to support our mission. 👟💙

In partnership with Morguard's OnePlanet campaign, we collected gently used shoes from 17 shopping centre locations across Canada, totaling 5,275 lbs, or 4,220 pairs of footwear diverted from landfills and given a second life.

This impact would not be possible without our partners who went the extra mile. Purolator supported the delivery of donated footwear, helping ensure shoes reached communities in need, and Ardène generously contributed gift cards to encourage participation and amplify the impact.

Thank you to everyone who dropped off a pair. This is what stepping forward together looks like. 👟

Last week, several members of the Soles4Souls Canada Board joined fellow board directors and staff in Guatemala for an unforgettable week of connection, learning and impact.

From helping provide new shoes to nearly 400 children to spending meaningful time with our partners on the ground, the week was a powerful reminder of what our mission is all about: creating opportunity for people through shoes and clothing.

That momentum continued this week as our full Soles4Souls Canada Board came together to reflect, share perspectives and look ahead to how we can continue growing our impact in Canada and around the world.

We’re incredibly grateful for all of our Canada Board Directors and Board Emeritus, and for the many ways they contribute to our mission through their time, insight, ideas and commitment to creating more opportunity for others.

To our passionate and dedicated board: thank you. Your guidance, perspective and unwavering belief in our mission continue to propel us forward.
