The Sneaker Project

Mission: To provide new shoes for Central Missouri youth who meet the financial eligibility requirements.

The Sneaker Project is a United Way of Central Missouri Partner Agency that provides sneakers to eligible children enrolled in school in the four-county mid-Missouri region that includes Cole, Miller, Moniteau and Osage.

We provide quality shoes for children pre-K to 12th grade. Shoes are available for children who qualify for free lunches. We network with county health departments and schools. $38 provides a child in need with a new pair of shoes. Qualifying children can receive new shoes twice a year.
