5. ABOUT SOLES4SOULS Soles4Souls has a simple concept. We get shoes and give them away. Since 2005, Soles4Souls has distributed more than 10 million pairs of shoes in over 125 different countries worldwide. 1 PAIR=1 LIFE In many countries, children walk barefoot on rough, rocky, uneven, or dangerous terrain. The simple gift of shoes can give those children protection from cuts, wounds, infections… even the transmission of disease. In fact, 55% of all world diseases can be prevented with proper sanitation and footwear! The shoes your company sponsors will keep children safe from injury and infection, as well as give them hope for a brighter tomorrow.
