Angel Bins helps you turn gently used shoes into funds for your cause—no upfront costs, just a simple, eco-friendly way to raise funds. We partner with schools, organizations, and individuals to make it easy for anyone to collect shoes and transform donations into meaningful contributions.
Getting started with Angel Bins is easy. You collect the shoes, we cover the shipping, and once we receive them, we weigh the shipment and send you a check based on the total weight. It’s that straightforward—no upfront costs, just a convenient way to raise funds while making a difference.
Our mission is to reduce waste and empower communities. Instead of sending shoes to landfills, we ship them to developing nations in Africa and South America, where female micro-entrepreneurs resell them in their local markets. This not only provides these women with a path to financial independence but also supports their families and communities. When you partner with Angel Bins, you’re part of a global solution that benefits both people and the planet.
Millions of people in the U.S are throwing out a pair of shoes everyday ending up in our already overflowing landfills. Angel Bins has come up with a solution where every one can win!
Angel Bins works with individuals, organizations and retailers to decrease waste, repurpose that which is still useable, and provide funds. All apparel is sent overseas to developing nations resold by micro-entrepreneurs. Take whats in your closet and put it to good use – the opportunities to raise funds and give back while also protecting the planet are endless with Angel Bins.

When you host a shoe drive fundraiser with Angel Bins the quality of the shoes is essential. All shoes collected from AB fundraiser are distributed globally. The very same shoes you collect, end up on the soles of thousands of people across the globe. Many of the shoes from your donation are sent to developing nations where shoes are a necessity. When we say gently worn, we mean NO holes. The shoes must have good soles left. If you wouldn’t wear them, please do not put them in your collection.
We offer two different shoe drive options; Mixed shoe drives, and Athletic shoe drives. We operate in 48 states, excluding Hawaii & Alaska.
There is no limit as to how many shoe drives you can host. Our most successful charities host a well planned and large shoe drive campaign twice a year. Many have raised $5,000 or more. As a result, making this a great annual fundraiser for many schools, teams, clubs, churches and charitable organizations.
Pledge the Pink Fundraiser
I am from a small community of 2,000 people in Kansas. I have done multiple fundraisers of different sorts in the past….cinnamon rolls, salsa sales, garage sales, making cotton candy, burrito sales, bingo nights, and even standing on the corner with a pink bucket taking donations. In 2019, I discovered Angel Bins. I thought to myself, ‘what the heck, might as well give it a try.’ I signed up and that was my first shoe collecting fundraiser. Through social media and a network of friends from all over, I was able to gather, box up and have 4,500 pairs of shoes!!
This fundraiser was self-sufficient! With each year, I have perfected the shoe drive/collection. I work smarter, not harder. I continuously gather shoes all year round and have helpers that do the same placed throughout the state of Kansas and Colorado. People now know what I am doing and save their shoes for me. It is easy to explain and do to ‘porch pick-ups’ to gather the shoes. I am fortunate that I have extra space for storage, a dry secure spot to box them up, and awesome people to help me! It is a Triple Win…People get their closets cleaned, my breast cancer walking team gets a donation check, and people in third world countries have their lives turned around because of my efforts!
Montebello Intermediate School Fundraiser
I have had the pleasure of working with Angel Bins twice, first with my daughter’s Girl Scouts troop and now with my middle school. As the coordinator of a college readiness program at my middle school, I am always looking for ways to raise funds to provide my students opportunities to visit local colleges/universities. A shoe donation fundraiser was an easy and profitable way to do so. Angel Bins was extremely easy to work with. Chelsea Lim was the AB Fundraising Coordinator for our shoe donation and she could not have been more pleasant to work with. Chelsea provided all necessary resources to start the fundraiser and followed up with additional helpful information throughout the fundraiser period. At the end of the fundraiser, Chelsea was available to us as needed when dropping off our shoes at their warehouse in Los Angeles. I loved working with Chelsea and AB and recommend AB to any organization looking for an easy and profitable fundraiser.
