We See. We Care. We Do.

MillionSchoolShoes is a non-governmental organisation, established in 2015 largely shaped by the varied experiences of its members, some of whom went through their own difficult upbringing, under very harsh conditions of going to school barefooted and lacking basic educational support.

We are a registered non-profit organisation based in Pretoria, South Africa with a national footprint supporting learners from poor backgrounds with school shoes. Our ultimate goal is to collect and distribute 1 million school shoes!
