The purpose of Viatu Foundation is simple:
To purchase and distribute shoes to as many of these children as possible.
​
For just $10, we are able to provide a child with a pair of shoes and a pair of socks to keep them safe and healthy, remain in school, and feel good about themselves.

The mission of Viatu Foundation
is to empower success, provide health and safety, and promote dignity by providing shoes to children in Kenya.
"Viatu" means "shoes" in Swahili. Many children in Kenya do not have shoes or have shoes that are falling apart and their families are unable to provide new ones for them. This puts them at risk for injury, bug bites, and even being sent home from school for not having the proper uniform. ​
$10 provides a pair of shoes and socks for a child in need.
Give a gift of any amount below.*
*$10 includes all manufacturing, transportation and operating costs for one pair of shoes.
Help us keep administrative costs down by covering processing fees and a small "tip" for our giving platform provider.
"Act as if what you do
makes a difference.
It does."
