Abstract

The Shoebox Project for Shelters was co-founded in Toronto in 2011 by four sisters-in-law, who asked their friends to fill shoeboxes with $50 worth of little luxuries, so they could deliver them to a local shelter. Today, the Shoebox Project operates in 30 communities across Canada and is still growing! Since inception, the Shoebox Project has delivered over 15,000 gifts to women in almost 200 shelters. The Shoebox Project is a registered charity, headquartered in Toronto. More information can be found at www.shoeboxproject.com.

"This is a great organization, and we are excited to be partnering with the Shoebox Project to help women all over the country," said Michael Cooper, President and CEO of Dream Unlimited. "The work the Shoebox Project has done and the number of lives they have impacted since 2011 is impressive, and we are happy to support their mission."
