$15,000 Goal

We invite you this Colorado Gives Day 2026, to walk with us as we walk with others. 

A $15 dollar donation buys a new pair of kicks for a beautiful person experiencing homelessness or economic disparity in our community. A $3,000 donation supports a school event for 125 children! Whatever your gift, Wholly Kicks will empower the community with love, dignity and joy. We thank you for your generosity and sacrifice for others. Your support will enable up to 10,000 people to walk stronger in 2027 at our 60+ scheduled events.

Please consider a recurring monthly gift this year.  Your first donation will be matched up to $100 by the Colorado Gives Foundation!

On behalf of the entire Wholly Kicks team, THANK YOU for your partnership and support to move our mission of love and kicks forward.

Mission

Wholly Kicks walks with those experiencing homelessness and economic disparity. We believe everyone is a whole person and is deserving of a new pair of shoes.

Background Statement

Wholly Kicks was launched when our founder, Tyg"er" Taylor, met a man in his alley who said, "I suppose you can only walk in the shoes given to you." From a brief conversation in November, 2018 to over 40,000 new kicks today, (October, 2026), Wholly Kicks continues to expand it's outreach to persons of all ages who find a new pair of kicks to be helpful on their journey. With over 60 events each year, you can find Wholly Kicks in Title 1 schools, in shelters, on the street, with housing orgs, with nonprofits that care, and walking with case managers who support our neighbors.
