The Impact of New Shoes
On average, children outgrow their shoes every 4-8 months. Most families living in poverty can’t afford to keep up with the needs of their child’s growing feet. But, when children have brand-new shoes that fit right and instill confidence, they have the stepping stone to do it all – comfortably, and actively.
Why New Shoes?
67% of children are wearing shoes that don’t fit, as families with limited budgets struggle to afford proper footwear. Proper-fitting shoes are fundamental to a child’s health and well-being, and at Operation Warm, we know every child deserves this basic necessity. Through our shoe program, we provide free shoes for kids, helping remove barriers that can impact comfort, confidence, and participation at school and in everyday activities.
