OCTOBER 2019 - THANKS TO ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT IN THE LAST 5 YEARS, WE HAVE NOW FOUND NEW FEET FOR JUST UNDER 1,500,000 PAIRS OF PRELOVED CHILDREN’S SHOES IN 43 COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD INCLUDING HERE IN THE U.K. OUR DOORS ARE CLOSED FOR THE DURATION OF THIS MONTH FOR YOUR DONATIONS OF SAL’S SHOES AND WILL REOPEN FOR THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER. PLEASE NOTE ALL DONATED SHOES MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A MIN. £1/PAIR DONATION.
There are 300 million children in the world for whom walking with shoes is a rarity. This makes them extremely vulnerable to infection by parasites, such as hookworm; while injuries to the feet and ankles can lead to ulcers and other conditions which are almost always left untreated. Without shoes, many children are not permitted to attend school.
Sal's Shoes. Crossing continents to make sure that your used, loved (and barely worn) outgrown children's shoes are delivered straight from you to those in need.
Donate
We are run by volunteers but need financial donations to continue passing on the shoes you donate. If you can help then please visit our Charity Checkout link.
Distributions
It's estimated that nearly 300 million people around the world can't afford shoes. Our donations go to those in the most desperate and life impacting need.
Our Story
In our first year, we collected 4,805 pairs of shoes and distributed them in 8 countries, including the UK. Learn more about how we set up Sal's Shoes.
