Donate Gently Used Shoes for Kids in Need
Cradles to Crayons provides children in need with some of the most important basics of life—free of charge.
These basics include clothing, school supplies, toys, and much more. In other words, they provide all the physical goods that children need to be safe, protected from the elements, and ready to learn. And by supplying them with high-quality used or new goods, they make underprivileged children feel valued.
Dimmers is a long-standing partner of Cradles to Crayons. We ask that you join us by donating shoes that are used but in good condition. Just drop them off at the store. When you donate to Cradles to Crayons, you can be absolutely sure that your donation will go to a deserving local child, for whom the donation was specifically requested.
What’s In It For You?
Besides the good feeling you get from doing good:
Get a $5.00 coupon for every pair of shoes you donate.
Plus, tell us the name of the school or sports club you represent.* When we receive 300 pairs of gently-used shoes from that school or club, Dimmers will donate $300 worth of sports supplies to them. So let your classmates or teammates know!
*You may only represent 1 school or club for each pair of shoes donated.
