Good360 Australia is a not-for-profit that helps businesses donate brand-new surplus goods to communities in need. With a network of over 4,700 charities and disadvantaged schools, they ensure essential items like school supplies, clothing, and shoes, reach the people who need them most, making a real difference in education and beyond.

Since 2022, Shoes & Sox has proudly partnered with Good360 to connect brand-new shoes to children across Australia. For many families, buying a properly fitted pair of school shoes can be a financial challenge. But with Good360’s innovative model, we’ve been able to support kids heading back to school, families recovering from natural disasters, and communities facing tough times, because every child deserves to start their school day with confidence and comfort.

Together, we’ve already connected over 43,500 pairs of shoes to children who need them most, ensuring they can focus on learning, not their sore feet. This partnership doesn’t just help kids thrive in the classroom and the playground, we are also keeping high-quality products in use instead of going to waste. By working with Good360, we’re proud to make a difference for families, communities, and the planet.

Impact Stories

“Children love to play! Having durable footwear that keeps them safe while they run, climb, and jump is very important. Stylish shoes that their parents might not usually buy are an added bonus. Thank you to Good360 and Shoes and Sox for the delivery of Clarks and Kicks branded shoes. These shoes will go a long way in helping kids enjoy their playtime this coming summer.”

- Mercy Community Services

“The girls could not believe their eyes. Squeals of excitement were loud. Who doesn’t love new shoes? A huge thank you to Shoes & Sox for their beautiful donation of children's shoes. They will be distributed to families that do not have easy access to shops in small country NSW. This donation will bring lots of happiness and confidence to children - thank you!”

- The Backpack Venture

“Our reaction to the shoes was jaw-dropping! We received enough pairs for everyone, so no child will miss out. We've been giving children 2 or 3 pairs, depending on their circumstances. Kids' feet grow so quickly, and sometimes parents struggle to keep up with the cost of living. Both the kids and the parents were so happy and loved the shoes. It was very rewarding to see the kids' faces when they received the shoes. Thank you to Shoes & Sox and Good360 for the amazing donation!”
