SC4K Celebrates 40 Years<br />

of Providing <strong>Shoes</strong> <strong>and</strong> Clothing<br />

to Greater Clevel<strong>and</strong>’s Children<br />

Since 1969, <strong>Shoes</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />

<strong>Clothes</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Kids</strong> has positively<br />

impacted the lives of area<br />

children by giving them the<br />

pride <strong>and</strong> confidence that<br />

comes from having br<strong>and</strong><br />

new shoes <strong>and</strong> clothes. Pride<br />

<strong>and</strong> confidence that are<br />

essential to a child’s success<br />

in school – <strong>and</strong> in life.<br />

Founded by businessman Morrie Sayre as <strong>Shoes</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Kids</strong>, the organization<br />

initially collected used shoes <strong>and</strong> distributed them directly to the children<br />

in need. Later, the early founders raised money to purchase new shoes.<br />

The program eventually operated out of the Downtown YMCA <strong>and</strong><br />

later from the<br />

Clevel<strong>and</strong> Municipal<br />

School District’s<br />

Woodl<strong>and</strong> Data<br />

Center warehouse.<br />

Ten years ago, new<br />

clothing items were<br />

added to the<br />

distribution <strong>and</strong> <strong>Shoes</strong><br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>Kids</strong> officially<br />

became <strong>Shoes</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />

<strong>Clothes</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Kids</strong><br />

(SC4K).<br />

SC4K now procures<br />

a majority of its clothing items through a direct purchasing program<br />

from a network of wholesalers that sell children’s clothing at deep<br />

discounts. SC4K is able to purchase $22.00 worth of br<strong>and</strong> new<br />

clothing <strong>for</strong> every $1.00 spent. In addition, SC4K also purchases <strong>and</strong><br />

distributes Payless ShoeSource shoe gift cards instead of shoes allowing<br />

families to purchase new shoes or boots of their choice that are stylish<br />

<strong>and</strong> fit properly at conveniently located Payless locations. These gift<br />

cards also help SC4K carry out its mission with compassion, care<br />

<strong>and</strong> respect.<br />

SC4K distributes only br<strong>and</strong> new items, including quality clothing basics<br />

like socks, underwear, t-shirts, pants, <strong>and</strong> coats. In 2009 alone, SC4K<br />

will distribute new clothing <strong>and</strong> Payless shoe gift cards with a retail<br />

value of over $1.8 million dollars. Our extensive partner distribution<br />

network consists of 37 social service agencies in the Greater Clevel<strong>and</strong><br />

<strong>Shoes</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Clothes</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Kids</strong> Newsletter • Spring 2009<br />

area that each operate a distribution five to six times a year. SC4K<br />

charges no fees to its recipients or Distribution Partners <strong>and</strong> each year<br />

the program must be re-capitalized. SC4K is proud to report that of<br />

every dollar you give, $0.92 cents goes directly to the programs <strong>and</strong><br />

services that benefit the children we serve.<br />

The generosity of our volunteers <strong>and</strong> donors has been the cornerstone<br />

of SC4K over the years, allowing us operate efficiently with a staff of<br />

only three full-time <strong>and</strong> one part-time employee. More than 900<br />

volunteers provide direct service to the children by packing boxes in<br />

the warehouse, serving on boards, working in the office or s<strong>up</strong>porting<br />

SC4K at community events.<br />

As we enter our 40 th year<br />

of service to the Greater<br />

Clevel<strong>and</strong> community, we<br />

realize that the need is<br />

greater now than it has<br />

ever been. SC4K is<br />

working hard to address<br />

that need while creating<br />

new <strong>and</strong> innovative ways<br />

to involve <strong>and</strong> engage our<br />

s<strong>up</strong>porters. The 2009 Heart & Sole Luncheon on October 19 th will<br />

be a special celebration of the organization’s 40 th Anniversary, involving<br />

a display of historical in<strong>for</strong>mation <strong>and</strong> a new video highlighting the<br />

organization’s work over the past 40 years. Please show your s<strong>up</strong>port<br />

by attending the luncheon, our biggest <strong>and</strong> most important fundraiser<br />

of the year.<br />

SC4K is confident that with your s<strong>up</strong>port, we will continue to make<br />

a positive impact on the lives on area children in need <strong>for</strong> the next<br />

40 years <strong>and</strong> beyond.

A Message from the Executive Director<br />

SC4K Celebrates 40 th Year<br />

It has truly been my honor to work alongside<br />

retiring SC4K Board Chair, Rocky Richardson.<br />

Over the past three years, Rocky brought<br />

enthusiastic leadership <strong>and</strong> genuine passion<br />

to her executive role <strong>and</strong> helped see the<br />

organization though both challenges <strong>and</strong><br />

successes. As Rocky moves into her new<br />

role as Life Director <strong>for</strong> the organization she will remain an important<br />

link. Her predecessor Terry Uhl has already hit the ground running<br />

with fresh enthusiasm <strong>and</strong> innovative ideas. Terry has been a longtime<br />

member of the Board of Directors <strong>and</strong> has provided significant<br />

guidance <strong>for</strong> SC4K’s strategic <strong>and</strong> public relations planning ef<strong>for</strong>ts.<br />

I am confident that Terry <strong>and</strong> I will work together with the rest of<br />

the Board <strong>and</strong> staff to continue the ambitious projects started by<br />

Rocky <strong>and</strong> her predecessors to ensure that <strong>Shoes</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Clothes</strong> <strong>for</strong><br />

Kid will continue to have a positive impact on the lives of thous<strong>and</strong>s<br />

of deserving children <strong>for</strong> years to come.<br />

<strong>and</strong> Payless shoe gift cards with a retail<br />

value of $1,800,000.<br />

UPS <strong>and</strong> Associate Board Team Up<br />

Every other month, SC4K’s partner sites stretch their limited resources<br />

to pick <strong>up</strong> clothing items <strong>and</strong> shoe gift cards at the SC4K warehouse<br />

<strong>for</strong> distribution at their sites. At SC4K’s annual Care Day event,<br />

these items are delivered directly to partners saving the sites valuable<br />

stepped <strong>up</strong> <strong>for</strong> the second year to provide vehicles, route logistics<br />

<strong>and</strong> dozens of volunteers to make SC4K’s deliveries to all of the<br />

distribution partner sites. Members of the SC4K Board of Directors<br />

<strong>and</strong> Associate<br />

Board also<br />

participated<br />

in the deliveries.<br />

One distribution<br />

partner on each<br />

distribution route<br />

a site tour <strong>and</strong> shared in<strong>for</strong>mation about the services they provide.<br />

Channel 3 covered the event on their noon <strong>and</strong> evening news<br />

broadcasts. With the combined volunteer hours of this <strong>and</strong> other<br />

events, SC4K received a grant of over $6,000 from the UPS<br />

the coveted four star ranking from Charity<br />

Navigator, America's premier independent<br />

<strong>and</strong> plans <strong>for</strong> 2009. Staff led an open discussion on topics of<br />

income-eligibility, the increasing need <strong>for</strong> SC4K’s services <strong>and</strong><br />

a new pair of children’s shoes to the party as an “entrance fee” to<br />

be donated to local children in need through SC4K. The line to<br />

enter was out the door as employee after employee h<strong>and</strong>ed over<br />

not only one, but sometimes two or three pairs of new shoes. The<br />

piles of shoes were bagged<br />

by volunteers from SC4K<br />

who generously donated<br />

their time <strong>and</strong> services.<br />

Thank you Hyl<strong>and</strong><br />

employees <strong>for</strong> this<br />

extraordinary donation.<br />

Employees in one department at the Clevel<strong>and</strong> Clinic collected<br />

br<strong>and</strong> new clothing, toys <strong>and</strong> gift cards. The Plain Dealer once again<br />

items. Thanks to all of the donors <strong>for</strong> making a special ef<strong>for</strong>t to<br />

help children in need.<br />

Dominion Sponsors Holiday Tree <strong>for</strong> SC4K<br />

For the second year, Dominion sponsored a holiday tree<br />

at The Clevel<strong>and</strong> Play House’s annual Festival of Trees.<br />

The tree was decorated with over 200 children’s winter<br />

accessory items that were donated to SC4K. The festival<br />
