Why Donate Today?
Shoes For Scholars is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that was established as a commitment to diversity and inclusion. Our mission is to empower kids with the tools they require to propel themselves towards excellence.
As of 2022, Nevada was the 49th worst state in the nation for educational attainment. Clothing Clark County was founded to address the social and economical shortfalls in our state’s educational system, giving it an integral role to play in the success of Nevada’s students.
Regardless of race, national origin, color, creed, gender/sex, sexual orientation, transgender status, religion, disability, perceived disability, or veteran status, our doors are open, and our support is unwavering. By supporting us, you’re not just donating clothes; you’re endorsing a vision of inclusivity and equal opportunity for all.
Your Contribution Makes A Difference
Your generous donations are more than just items; they are the building blocks of confidence, the catalysts for success, and the tools that allow children to focus on their education rather than their attire. With your help, we can ensure that every child steps into the classroom feeling prepared, valued, and ready to learn.
There are 41,245 families with children below the poverty line in Clark County, and 230 Title 1 Schools. We founded our non-profit because we believe the students and their families should be able to focus on their educational goals instead of their essential clothing needs.
