OUTFITTING the FUTURE Shoes and Clothes for Kids marks 50 years with vision to double its size and impact
In 2019, Shoes and Clothes for Kids will mark its 50th year of positively
impacting the lives of greater Cleveland’s neediest children. When our
founder, Morrie Sayre, learned that many children in Cleveland lacked
adequate footwear, he worked with the local YMCA to collect and distribute
shoes. He and his friends sometimes kept supplies of shoes in the trunks
of their cars so they could hand them out to kids on the playgrounds. Soon
Mr. Sayre engaged his inner circle and began raising money to purchase
new shoes. The organization continued to evolve and expand as the
community’s needs grew.
Today, Shoes and Clothes for Kids is improving school attendance and
equalizing the classroom learning opportunity for greater Cleveland’s
neediest children by providing them brand new school uniforms,
clothes, school supplies, and shoe gift cards.
As we celebrate being “50 years new,” we are inspired by our founder’s
commitment to positively impact more students as the challenges for them
and their families continue to grow and change. Our plans are big and
bold, but we know we can achieve them with your support.

“ SC4K has helped thousands of kids every year get to school dressed
for educational success. SC4K eliminates many of the obstacles students face
to get to school. Many people don't realize the problems of inner city youth.
If they don't have shoes, they don't go to school. The same is true if they
don't have the required uniforms or a winter coat. SC4K helps eliminate these

obstacles to attendance.

Volunteers needed!
Volunteers play an essential role in the operation of sC4k.
Without them, we’d be unable to provide new shoes,
school clothing, school supplies and more to
thousands of kids throughout the Greater Cleveland area.
Opportunities are available year-round
for individuals and groups to help us sort, count,
organize, stock shelves, fill orders and more.
