Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE FOUNDATION'S MISSION IS TO PROVIDE NEW AND GENTLY USED SHOES, SOCKS, BACKPACKS, SCHOOL SUPPLIES AND ATHLETIC GEAR TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN NEED LIVING IN SOUTH FLORIDA.

  • SEE SCHEDULE O

    Expenses $336,800 · Grants $336,431

  • FROM INCEPTION THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2024, IN JACOB'S SHOES HAS PROVIDED 262,370 PAIRS OF SHOES, 95,977 PAIRS OF SOCKS, 12,704 BACKPACKS WITH SCHOOL SUPPLIES AND 4,836 PIECES OF ATHLETIC EQUIPMENT TO LOCAL CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN NEED. IN JACOB'S SHOES PARTNERS WITH HUNDREDS OF SCHOOLS, SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES, SHELTERS AND OTHER CHARITIES AND HAS ESTABLISHED AND MAINTAINED OVER 140 EMERGENCY SHOE CLOSETS THROUGHOUT SOUTH FLORIDA. MOST OF THE CHILDREN SERVED LIVE IN POVERTY. MANY ARE HOMELESS OR ARE LIVING IN SHELTERS. SOME ARE IN FOSTER CARE OR HAVE AGED OUT OF FOSTER CARE. SOME HAVE SPECIAL NEEDS. SOME ARE VICTIMS OF ABUSE OR NEGLECT AND HAVE BEEN REMOVED FROM THEIR HOMES. OTHERS ARE VICTIMS OF FIRES, FLOODS OR HURRICANES. SOME MUST WEAR SHOES THAT ARE TOO SMALL, HAVE HOLES OR DON'T HAVE SOLES. SOME KIDS HAVE NO SHOES AT ALL OR ARE FORCED TO SHARE SHOES WITH SIBLINGS OR PARENTS. WEARING ILL-FITTED OR DAMAGED SHOES IS UNHEALTHY FOR CHILDREN'S DEVELOPING FEET AND CAN CAUSE SERIOUS HEALTH ISSUES. IT CAN ALSO CAUSE THE CHILDREN TO EXPERIENCE SIGNIFICANT EMBARRASSMENT. WALKING TO AND AROUND SCHOOL BECOMES PAINFUL AND, IN SOME CASES, PREVENTS CHILDREN FROM ATTENDING CLASS REGULARLY OR PARTICIPATING IN SPORTS AND EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES. HAVING A GREAT PAIR OF WELL-FITTED SHOES HAS A LASTING, POSITIVE AFFECT ON A CHILD'S SELF-ESTEEM. IT ALSO DECREASES BULLYING AND REDUCES TRUANCY. OUR SHOES PROVIDE CHILDREN IN NEED THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXCEL IN ACADEMIA AND SPORTS SO THEY CAN WORK TOWARDS RECEIVING SCHOLARSHIPS TO COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES AND OPPORTUNITIES THEY WOULD NOT HAVE ACCESS TO OTHERWISE. THE SHOES WE PROVIDE ALLOW CHILDREN IN NEED TO ATTEND SCHOOL PREPARED AND WITH DIGNITY. IN JACOB'S SHOES RECEIVES IN-KIND DONATIONS OF NEW AND GENTLY USED SHOES, SOCKS, BACKPACKS & SCHOOL SUPPLIES. THE GENTLY USED ITEMS ARE REFURBISHED AND THEN BOTH THE NEW AND GENTLY USED ITEMS ARE PLACED INTO INVENTORY AND THEN DISTRIBUTED TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN NEED LIVING IN SOUTH FLORIDA. THE IN-KIND ITEMS DISTRIBUTED ARE CLOSELY MONITORED AND ALL DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION (RECIPIENT'S AGE, CITY, COUNTY, SCHOOL, SHELTER, CHARITY PARTNER ETC.) IS RECORDED IN AN INVENTORY SYSTEM. BELOW IS A RECAP OF THE IN-KIND DONATIONS RECEIVED AND DISTRIBUTED FOR CALENDAR YEAR 2024: NEW & GENTLY USED IN-KIND DONATIONS RECEIVED 241,450 (ESTIMATED VALUE) NEW & GENTLY USED IN-KIND ITEMS DISTRIBUTED TO CHILDREN & FAMILIES IN NEED 318,983 (ESTIMATED VALUE)

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
