Ruben’s Shoes began in 2013 and was inspired by a young boy named Ruben living in the Dominican Republic. In countries like the Dominican, without shoes kids can’t go to school. Ruben’s Shoes collects gently used shoes and ships them around the world to those in need.
Ruben’s Shoes also has an elementary school in the Dominican Republic with over 200 students, and the second annual obstacle race will help raise money to build a secondary school.
