Operation Shoebox 2026

When: June 1 – June 30, 2026

During the month of June, we will be collecting new shoes for xHope foster youth. We invite everyone to participate by donating tennis or athletic shoes in support of xHope’s mission to serve at-risk children. This year, xHope anticipates supporting more than 250 youth through their programs.

Where:

Donations can be dropped off at our West Sacramento, Stockton, and Modesto locations. All contributions will be distributed through the xHope organization.

Community Needs:

• Youth sizes: 12–5

• Adult sizes: 6–11

Note: Donations do not need to be name-brand. Quality, affordable options from big box stores are greatly appreciated.

Looking Back at Our Impact:

Last year (2025), we collected 87 pairs of shoes across our locations—surpassing our 2024 total of 62 pairs. We are excited to continue building on that momentum and help provide at-risk children with the comfort, style, and confidence they deserve as they head to school.

Why This Matters:

xHope is deeply committed to serving the most vulnerable children in our community. The organization partners with case managers, social workers, school staff, and local agencies to support foster and adoptive families, kinship placements, youth aging out of foster care, homeless and unaccompanied youth, teen parents, and families experiencing economic hardship.

Their mission is to remain responsive to both ongoing and evolving needs—providing hope, care, and support to children who need it most.
