Shoe Drive Fundraiser

Want an easy way to support Generation SERVE and earn volunteer hours? Join our Shoe Drive Fundraiser with Funds2Orgs! We’re collecting gently used shoes to help protect the environment and empower families around the world. Donated shoes will be repurposed and resold by small business owners in developing countries, creating sustainable jobs and keeping shoes out of landfills. Our goal is 3,000 pairs of shoes, and we’d love to reach our dream goal of 8,000 pairs! Start collecting through your friends, family, neighbors, church, or school! If you have any suggestions or know a community organization willing to support our Shoe Drive, please email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

We will have two opportunities to earn up to 5 service hours each month (Nov & Dec). We’ll recognize the youth and their family who donate the most cumulative shoes at the end of our Shoe Drive with our “Step Up for Service” trophy.
Make sure to track the number of pairs you collect and submit photo proof using our SERVE at Home form after dropping off.
