Every student deserves to put their best foot forward.
Empowering Children One Pair of Shoes at a Time.
When Andrew Plummer’s daughter told him about the kids in her class who didn’t have sneakers for recess or PE he reached out to other business owners, asked a few employees to volunteer with distribution, and bought a pair of shoes for every student at Bridgeport Public Schools. It was an immediate success and has become an annual tradition.

Get Shoes That Fit
It’s estimated that 1 in 5 American children are in desperate need of shoes - any shoes at all. How many are stuck wearing their only pair for mandatory Gym Class? For how many is that pair something that makes PE activities unsafe or impossible? We don’t believe children should be excluded because they can’t afford the basics. Being barefoot isn’t the only way that footwear affects kids lives. Growing feet need shoes that can keep up.
