A Virtual Run, Walk or Bike to provide shoes to kids in need

May 1-31, 2024

This year’s Race4EveryKid is in honor of Robert Adams-Ghee. Robert was a passionate supporter the 4EveryKid program because he understood the need first-hand. “I recall growing up when I was more concerned with hiding the holes in my shoes than on learning. Twice in my childhood, we were all crowded into homes of relatives and sleeping on chairs and sofas while trying to attend school. If someone had given me a new pair of shoes during those times, I would have felt like a king! Through the work of Soles4Souls, I can now help to give a child experiencing homelessness that new pair of shoes and perhaps help them feel like a King!”

Easy, Fun and Rewarding

Race4EveryKid is a virtual movement challenge to raise funds to provide shoes to kids experiencing homelessness. Whether you decide to walk, run, cycle, or swim, every dollar you raise will provide joy and dignity to kids across the US. Soles4Souls makes it easy for you by providing everything you need to be successful, and we promise that you will have a lot of fun along the way.

Millions of kids in the U.S. experience homelessness.


Children who experience homelessness often lack basic necessities, including a good pair of shoes. 

No child should have to feel embarrassed, discouraged or left out simply because they lack something most of us take for granted.

At Soles4Souls, we’re on a mission to provide new athletic shoes to every homeless child in the U.S., so they can stay healthy and fully participate in school. Every kid deserves to feel the dignity and joy of a new pair of shoes.

You can be a champion for a child experiencing homelessness.

Help us reach our goal of providing over 17,500 kids with a new pair of shoes for the upcoming school year!

For a homeless kid, a new pair of shoes means dignity, education, and health.


For the kids we serve, shoes make all the difference.

New shoes means opportunity.

It means they get to attend that after school program they’ve been looking forward to, the choice to try out for the basketball team because they actually have shoes that fit their feet,  but most of all, it means they have the freedom to just be a kid — in the classroom and on the playground.
