What is ShoeShare Malawi?
Imagine turning up for your big event in bare feet.
That is the reality for many people in Malawi, for whom a pair of trainers is simply too expensive. With the average wage at $2 a day, the idea of new sports kit is a luxury few can afford.
ShoeShare partners with over 200 villages in northern Malawi to provide good quality used trainers to aspiring young athletes. As well as improving performance and reducing injuries, good quality kit greatly increases player confidence and team spirit. Shoes are also used as prizes to reward teams and as a thank you to volunteers who help elsewhere in the community.
Help share your love of sport by donating your unwanted trainers to us. You're not only helping other athletes but also reducing landfill and clearing out your cupboards as well.
How does it work?
We collect shoes from across Scotland through sports clubs, races and fixtures, festivals and collection points in gyms, sports shops and schools. Volunteers then take them to our shipping partner in Dundee, where they are transported by ship and road to Tafika Sports Academy in Malawi.
