How to Help

Individual Support

The Green Bay Shoe Closet operates off of two key factors: donations and connections. Donations allow the Shoe Closet to give shoes to students of poverty; connections allow us to use this money efficiently. Any help in either of these areas is greatly appreciated, however small. If you or anyone you know would be helpful to the Shoe Closet, please contact us.

Shoes can be donated at the front office at Green Bay East High School. We are currently working on adding new locations to donate shoes, but if this location doesn’t work for you, please contact us.

We can take checks addressed to Green Bay East High School, and restricted to the Green Bay Shoe Closet. Mail checks to 1415 East Walnut Street, Green Bay, WI 54301. You can donate money online at our GoFundMe page.

Corporate Support

Donate to the Green Bay Shoe Closet and your corporation will make a lifelong impact on local students of poverty. Every dollar donated to the Shoe Closet goes towards helping students fully participate in running sports without injuries. Prospective corporate sponsors can support the Green Bay Shoe Closet many ways:

  • Monetary donations
  • Discounted/free shoes
  • Printing services
  • PR advice
  • Running a shoe drive for employees
  • Inviting us to speak at an event

All forms of support are extremely important to us, and our partnerships with corporations allow us to reach many more students of poverty. Please contact us about your corporation supporting Green Bay Shoe Closet. Recognition for your corporation’s support will be discussed on a case-by-case basis. 100% of donations go towards empowering students of of little means, so your corporation’s support of the Shoe Closet makes a large impact on our community. Partner with the Green Bay Shoe Closet to make a lasting impact on the lives of student athletes of poverty across Green Bay.

If your corporation is part of the Bellin Run Corporate Challenge, we run a fundraiser underneath the Bellin Run Corporate Challenge every year called the Corporate Relay for Underserved Athletes. For more information, visit our page about the Corporate Relay.
