Providing Soles to Lift a Child’s Spirit

Proudly Presented By: &

Heel & Soul was created out of the idea that everyone, everywhere, can use a pick me up. Without the ability to control their surroundings, a child needs that more than anyone else.

A new pair of shoes to start the school year is something that fulfills a basic need as well as makes a lasting impression on the youth of our communities.

When you see the look on a child's face after they receive something they both want and need, it can melt your heart. It's the little things that can make all the difference.

Your donation of new pairs of shoes will be distributed to children in the Greater Binghamton Area. Our generous sponsors and drop-off locations will accept shoes through July 24th. All monetary donations will be used to purchase shoes after the drop-offs have ended to determine what additional sizes may be needed most.

The shoes will then be distributed on August 2nd at the United Way of Broome County in Vestal.

This initiative would not be possible without the support of every business participating. Please join us in thanking them for putting children first in our communities.

Thank you to our community partners and their special considerations, which have been integral to the success of this initiative:

For providing the opportunity to make monetary donations in the Greater Binghamton area. Donors and sponsors alike are able to trust that their donations will be used for the sole purpose of providing new shoes for children in our communities. And your donations are potentially tax-deductible.

For serving as our partner for purchasing new shoes with all monetary donations in our communities as well as our distribution center for shoes in August.

For providing all boxes for shoe donations in our communities.

And a special thanks to you for reading more about Heel & Soul and helping provide new shoes for deserving children in our communities. We couldn't do this without any of you!
