About GreenSneakers:
The GreenSneakers program works with other non-profit organizations to help them offset costs of organizational development needs. GreenSneakers is a program of the Crown Ministry Group, a non-profit group committed to meeting the needs of others.

Through the GreenSneakers program non-profit charities are able to raise the funds by collecting gently used tennis shoes that are then made available as affordable footwear to people in need around the world. This win-win program helps charities meet their financial needs, helps provide shoes to the poor, and prevents waste.

In the past, GreenSneakers has also featured special opportunities for other organizations, such as schools or youth camps. These opportunities also provide a way to fundraise money directly for your organization by collecting used tennis shoes.
