Host a Collection Drive

Collection drives are the primary way Cleats for Kids collects inventory for our Locker Room shelves. We love partnering with kids, families, schools, businesses, sports teams, leagues, and community groups to host drives that make a real impact. Big or small, every collection drive helps us serve more kids in our community.

​

If you’re interested in hosting a drive, please email programs@cleatsforkids.org. We provide everything you need to get started, including collection boxes, posters, flyers, and social media resources to help promote your drive.

 

All Types, All Sports and All Sizes

Retail Partners and Bulk Donations

Email allyson@cleatsforkids.org for more information

With our retail and brand partners, Cleats for Kids provides new sports equipment to kids who need it to get on the field, on the court, and on the right track. C4K is equipped to accept, manage, and distribute large volumes of inventory with care and purpose. 

​

Our collaborative partnerships with community organizations and schools ensure that new shoes and gear are timely provided to kids in high-need communities. The impact of these gifts is immeasurable. New sustainable, affordable youth leagues have been started and continue to grow with these gifts. Additionally, these shoes and gear have gone to schools to start new and grow existing middle and high school sports programs. 

 

We work to elevate C4K’s mission to equip and empower kids with your business’s passion for impacting youth. Whether you are a manufacturer, retailer, or new business, we would love to partner with you.  
 

For more information, please contact Deputy Director Allyson Meyer, allyson@cleatsforkids.org. 

Financial Gifts

When you give, C4K will turn your financial gifts directly into gear—high-quality, sport-appropriate equipment placed into the hands of kids who need it most. Your support doesn’t just buy shoes; it fuels opportunity, empowers young athletes, and strengthens programs.
