We had an incredible time at The 615 Open hosted by Cromwell Media last week. ⛳ Thanks to the amazing support and generosity of everyone who participated, we raised $4721.64! That means over 230 children experiencing homelessness will receive new shoes. The money raised will make a huge difference in their lives. 👟💖 Thank you to all who came out and supported us. We can’t wait to do it again next year! A special shoutout to our partners for making this event a huge success.

♻ Reebok recently partnered with Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America (FDRA) to host over 40 guests from shoe brands, retailers, and suppliers worldwide for a Sustainability Roundtable. Key shoe sustainability and innovation leaders discussed challenges and new ideas to help our industry keep moving forward on traceability, bio, circularity, and more. 🤲 Our CEO, Todd Krinsky, gave opening remarks for the event, focusing on how great it is to see industry leaders from all different brands come together to collaborate and leave the competitive marketplace at the door. 🍻 The day culminated with FDRA’s signature @Brews & Shoes Networking Event, which hosted over 100 people from the footwear industry. All proceeds went directly to Soles4Souls, and Reebok also donated pairs of sneakers to the organization. 🙏 Thank you, Andy Polk, for facilitating this great event at Reebok!

I just returned from a trip to the Dominican Republic with Soles4Souls. Thirteen volunteers joined us as we gave close to 750 children new shoes and spent time with our 4Opportunity partners there learning how shoes donated to us are creating economic opportunities for families struggling to survive. Sharing my thoughts here on our trip and it's impact. #DominicanRepublic #Haiti #nonprofit #SocialEnterprise #entrepreneur

A huge thank you to Jack, his cousin William, and their friend Jack, sophomores at Kellenberg Memorial HS and Chaminade HS, for their incredible effort through the Let's Change the World Initiative! 🌍 Their first project, a local shoe collection for Soles4Souls, was a massive success, collecting about 1,300 shoes! It took three suburban-filled truck trips to UPS to send off 45 boxes of shoes. Their dedication to helping others and the environment is truly inspiring! If your company is looking for a way great way to give back, try starting a shoe drive today! https://hubs.la/Q02D196R0 #Soles4Souls #StepIntoOpportunity #LetsChangeTheWorld #YouthVolunteers #CommunitySupport
