For underserved kids, a new pair of shoes means more than just comfort. It represents confidence, inclusion, and the freedom to run, play, and learn without barriers.
That’s why we are thrilled to partner with Soles4Soles Canada to support kids in need from the ground up. In October, KEEN Canada hosted Soles4Souls Canada board members from around the country for their annual board meeting. It was a time to reflect, align, and strengthen their mission of turning shoes and clothing into opportunities.
Following the meeting, the KEEN Canada team had the incredible opportunity to put that mission into action through a 4EveryKid shoe distribution event. Partnering with the Boys and Girls Club, we helped fit 50 local kids with brand new shoes. Seeing their smiles and excitement was a powerful reminder of why these partnerships matter so deeply.
Energy stayed high throughout the day as we set up fitting stations and interacted with kids and their families. We make shoes to make a difference, and it was especially gratifying to personally make a difference in these kids' lives. As one KEEN team member, Celina, shared, “This was such an amazing experience for me — seeing how something as simple as a pair of shoes can make such a difference was incredibly moving.”
We’re grateful to continue working alongside Soles4Souls Canada to make a tangible impact in our communities, one pair at a time.
