Our mission is to ensure that every child in need of shoes in and around the Centre Region has a pair of new sneakers. Children from birth to 18 years of age with a medical assistance card or agency referral can qualify. In 2023 we distributed 383 pairs of new shoes to 296 children, 22 pairs to participants of Out of the Cold and helped with immigrant families and additional needs such as boots that became apparent during the year. Every child receives a new pair of socks and books from our library to keep.
