Founded in 2015, Shoes for Miles is a campaign to provide shoes to those in need while shining a light on congenital heart defects.
Why shoes?
It's easy to take for granted the miraculous wet engine that propels us forward in life... the human heart. Some babies are born with broken hearts and must fight for survival from birth. Much like our hearts, our feet work incredibly hard for us.
Unfortunately, many children do not have adequate shoes to protect their feet, allow them to play freely, and give them a feeling of pride.
Shoes for Miles aims to inspire others to use their hearts by giving new shoes to children in need.

Who will benefit?
Shoes collected during the 2021 campaign will go directly to low-resource families served by the Asian Community & Cultural Center.
The center's mission is to support and empower refugees and immigrants through programs and services, while sharing Asian culture and other cultural heritages of its clients with the broader Lincoln community.
