#StepUpKanawha

Building on the incredible success of our first year, we are thrilled to launch our Second Annual Kids of Kanawha Shoe Drive in 2026! With the support of our amazing community, we aim to make an even greater impact by expanding our reach and increasing participation across more schools and organizations. Last year’s momentum proved what we can accomplish together, and this year we’re setting our sights even higher—collecting more donations, helping more families, and continuing to foster a spirit of generosity and connection throughout our Valley. We invite everyone to join us once again in making this year’s drive our most successful yet!
