Turning Shoes and Clothing into Opportunity

At Soles4Souls, we turn unwanted shoes and clothing into opportunity, by keeping them from going to waste and putting them to good use - providing relief, creating jobs and empowering people to break the cycle of poverty.

Soles4Souls turns unwanted shoes and clothing into opportunity by keeping them from going to waste and putting them to good use: providing relief, creating jobs and empowering people to break the cycle of poverty. Headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, the organization repurposes product to supply its micro-enterprise, disaster relief, and direct assistance programs. With locations and warehouses across three continents, Soles4Souls has been able to distribute more than 51 million pairs of shoes and pieces of clothing in 129 countries since 2006.

We focus on three main program areas to fulfill our mission:

• Free Distribution - We distribute new shoes and clothing, donated by our corporate partners, to people in need in the US and around the world.

• Micro-enterprise - We help hard-working entrepreneurs build their own small businesses selling donated shoes and clothing.

• Global Experiences - Traveling with Soles4Souls is an amazing opportunity to discover new cultures and meet amazing people, and travelers get to see first-hand how our micro-enterprise program works and play a hands-on role in distributing new shoes to people in need.
