Ensuring Every Child Has the Shoes They Need
At United Way of Dickinson, we believe that no child should have to go without a proper pair of shoes. Kicks for Kids is a program dedicated to providing free, high-quality shoes to children whose families are facing financial hardship.
For many families, purchasing new shoes can be a financial burden, yet having well-fitting, durable footwear is essential for a child’s comfort, confidence, and ability to participate fully in school and daily activities. Whether it’s for the classroom, the playground, or sports, every child deserves to walk, run, and play without worry.
If your family is struggling to afford shoes for your child, Kicks for Kids is here to help. Through generous donations and community support, we ensure that children in need receive a new pair of shoes—because every child deserves to step forward with confidence.

Families in need can apply for the program by contacting Dakota Gant at the United Way Dickinson or their child's school social worker
