This summer, Houston comes together for a powerful cause at The Village Day & Shoe Drive, a B-Impactful Sneaker Ball Event. Our mission is to uplift and support children whose parents have been impacted by incarceration. A simple act-donating new or gently used shoes-can help boost a child’s confidence and ensure they step into summer with pride.
Special Hosts:
Meet and be inspired by our special guests:
Roselyn Omaka, Founder of Bolanle
Dakarai Akil, Actor & Director
Lindon Victor, Olympic Athlete
Desiree Davis, CEO of Desire Change Makers
Community Celebration:
Enjoy DJ music, fun activities, and a vibrant atmosphere for the whole family.
Make an Impact:
Donate new or gently used sneakers and formal shoes for girls and boys ages 6–14. Every pair goes directly to a child in need.

Children affected by the incarceration system face unique challenges. Together, we can show them they are seen, supported, and valued-one shoe at a time.
Let’s ensure every child has a pair. Join us, donate, and be part of a day filled with hope and community spirit!
