Sole Hope
Our mission is to offer Hope to widows & orphans around the world by teaching the trade of shoemaking. Jobs and shoes for those in need. www.solehope.org / Uganda, Zambia
Sole Hope started to provide closed toe shoes to African children; this is still our heart’s desire. But as we got to know the wonderful Ugandan and Zambian people, we realized we could do more. And when we returned to the U.S. after our initial working trip to Africa, we realized we could help adults across the world—that’s why we also serve our shoemakers.
But to really make the whole thing work, we need shoe buyers, not just in Africa, but everywhere. And so we’re serving bu . yers too. We think everyone should have the chance to wear the really cool shoes and give back at the same time

About Sole Hope
A group of passionate, committed people who are putting closed toed shoes on African children, one pair at a time. It all started with a chance encounter with a YouTube video--a video that broke our hearts, took us WAY out of our comfort zones, and lead us to Uganda and Zambia.
Along the way, we realized we could not only help African children, but we could help African men and women by teaching them a simple trade—how to make shoes. And so we began. Then we realized we could teach others—homeless, unemployed, recovering addicts, and nonprofits—how to make shoes, so they could earn a decent living and raise funds for their causes. So Sole Hope is touching lives in the U.S. and Africa, and we’re only getting started!
