How to donate
WANT TO DONATE?
Do you have a bag of pre-loved shoes your children have grown out of in the attic or under the stairs? Are you happy to gift them to another child?
It couldn’t be easier to get involved - bring your pre-loved shoes to a registered school, and they will be collected from Monday, 13th of April and throughout the remainder of April 2026. Check our map below to see if your school or a school in your area, is already registered to donate - we will deal with the rest! Please visit our FAQ page for more information! 👍🏼
If you don't see your school below, let them know! They can then contact us and register to get involved!

SEND A NOTE
In previous campaigns some children have left notes for the children who will receive their shoes. It’s really thoughtful and creates a genuine warmth from both sides. If your child would like to join in, once they have written their note or drawn a picture, please pop the note securely inside the shoes.
ANY questions?
If you have any further questions - just see our FAQ page which should give you answers. Alternatively email us at learnmore@ourshoes.ie 😀
