SHOES 4 KIDS is an incentive-based program that aims to motivate disadvantaged children (grades K-12) participating in programs at nonprofit agencies and schools to achieve physical fitness goals such as completing a 5K race, learning new sport skills, and improving body mass index (BMI) and physical fitness levels by providing them with the incentive of new, brand-name athletic shoes.
