Let's give every struggling family in Lincoln a pair of shoes.
What is Day Without Shoes?

DAY WITHOUT SHOES EVENTS HAVE BEEN A HUGE SUCCESS
In April of 2011, Cornhusker Bank and People’s City Mission partnered to shine a light on the impact of shoe insecurity in the Lincoln community with the first ever Day Without Shoes campaign. Over 200 businesses, churches, organizations and schools served as collection sites for individuals to donate their new and used shoes.
This annual campaign found such success, that in 2020 a partnership was created with Stephen Center to provide support to the Omaha community as well. Since its inception, members of Lincoln, Omaha and the surrounding communities have collected 347,000 pairs of shoes and monetary donations totaling nearly $118,000!
