Request a Shoe Event

Bring Wholly Kicks to Your Community

Across Aurora and Denver, Wholly Kicks teams up with schools, shelters, and nonprofits to host shoe events for the communities they serve. These events are more than just a giveaway—they’re about dignity, connection, and meeting people right where they are.

All events are coordinated through qualified partner organizations.

Who Can Request an Event

Wholly Kicks shoe events are designed for individuals experiencing homelessness, housing insecurity, or economic disparity. To qualify, your location must be:

  • A Title 1 preschool or elementary school
  • A homeless shelter or transitional housing provider
  • A nonprofit organization that serves low-income individuals or families
  • A case manager, outreach worker, or school liaison making a group referral

Note: We are not able to fulfill individual or one-time personal requests.

What to Expect

Every Wholly Kicks event is designed to offer more than just new shoes—it’s an experience rooted in presence, conversation, and care.

Here’s what our process looks like:

  1. Initial Request & Review – We’ll learn more about your organization and the people you serve.
  2. Planning & Scheduling – We coordinate sizing, estimated need, logistics, and volunteers.
  3. Event Day – Wholly Kicks brings the shoes, socks and love. Your community members get to try on and choose the perfect pair.
  4. Follow-Up – We build long-term relationships with our event hosts for future support.
