“Your donation of $15 dollars will cover the cost of one brand new pair of shoes for one deserving child. However, whatever you can provide would be greatly appreciated!”
Running, jumping, playing, and exploring are all essential parts of childhood! But these activities can be difficult to do when you don’t have the proper footwear. Did you know that some children in the Ottawa area do not own a good pair of running shoes?
William Bourgault* began the Footwear 4 Kids initiative in 2020. Since then it has developed into a charitable project and social movement that encourages and assists members of our community, and sponsors and partners to help us provide a good pair of shoes to a child in need.
Our mission is to tackle one of the most visible signs of poverty and support and advocate for the needs of the children, youth, and families in Ottawa.
Since its inception, Footwear 4 Kids has provided shoes to hundreds of deserving kids in the Ottawa area with new or gently used athletic footwear and we hope to provide much more!
“Your donation of $15 dollars will cover the cost of one brand new pair of shoes for one deserving child. However, whatever you can provide would be greatly appreciated!”
Our goal is to eventually be able to provide a new pair of shoes for every child in need.
Thanks so much for considering the Footwear 4 Kids Ottawa.
