We Are Two Ten Footwear Foundation
OUR MISSION IS TO BRING HOPE AND OPPORTUNITY TO THE PEOPLE OF FOOTWEAR
We provide crisis and hardship relief, mental health counseling, academic scholarships, and resources to help American footwear workers and their families thrive. Two Ten started as a simple gesture of compassion in depression-era 1939, when a group of footwear workers came together at 210 Lincoln Street in Boston to help a colleague who’d fallen on hard times.
In the many years since that first act of kindness, Two Ten has evolved into a national charitable foundation that’s provided millions of dollars in support and services to generations of footwear families.
