The B STRONG Shoe Giveaway was started in 2007 as a way to help children in economically disadvantage schools to have well fitting athletic shoes to compete to the best of their abilities. Braden's spirit is the catalyst behind this program as he wanted all kids to be on the same playing field. The Braden Aboud Foundation not only places tennis shoes yearly on one entire school campus, but we also take requests from counselors and social workers who have need in their communities.  

The foundation has now placed over 10,000 pairs of shoes on 20 El Paso elementary school campuses, and this program is not only growing yearly, but it is a favorite of the hundreds who have volunteered who help to make it a success.

New shoes and socks make for miles of smiles and many happy feet. This is our largest single donation to the community and we welcome you as a volunteer or sponsor.
