Rising New York Road Runners New Balance Shoe Distributions

To help and inspire our youth through running, we distribute shoes to kids at enrolled Rising New York Road Runners sites with shoe donations from New Balance. Since 2017, more than 47,000 pairs of shoes have been distributed to qualified participants.

Rising New York Road Runners is a free running-based program that helps youth develop the ability, confidence, and desire to be physically active for life. To learn more about the program and eligibility, please email risingnyrr@nyrr.org or visit the program page.
