How to Enroll Your School
All schools must complete the enrollment application to be considered for the program.
Rack Room Shoes reviews each enrollment application and makes the final determination based on set criteria. If a school is chosen for the program, Rack Room Shoes will connect with the school to share further instructions on how the Shoes That Fit partnership works.
School Liaisons
When a school fills out the enrollment application, they designate a school liaison and alternate liaison that will coordinate the efforts between the school and Rack Room Shoes. This can be any person who is employed by the school or district (teacher, counselor, administrator, etc.).

Rack Room Shoes reviews each enrollment application, contacts the school for further information and makes the final determination based on set criteria. If the school is chosen for the program, Rack Room Shoes will contact the school with instructions on how the Shoes That Fit partnership works.
Because this program works exclusively through schools, we are unable to accept requests directly from parents. However, parents may contact their child's school to request that they be considered for the Shoes That Fit program.
Sponsorship Card and Funds
Rack Room Shoes promotes in-store fundraising campaigns at each of our 500+ locations twice a year to collect donations for more than 600+ partner elementary, middle and high schools. Rack Room Shoes does not require schools to promote the program to raise funds.
The Sponsorship Card is included in the Shoes That Fit school kit that each partner school receives. This card contains the funds that are raised for the school by its local Rack Room Shoes store and works like a gift card. The school liaison uses the card to purchase new shoes for students in need that are enrolled at their school.
Yes. Even though 100% of proceeds that are raised in stores go directly to support the Shoes That Fit program, we accept coupons for use with the Sponsorship Card.
Rack Room Shoes raises funds for the Shoes That Fit program during the back-to-school and holiday promotional periods. The collected funds are released to schools in the fall. The school and school liaison must use all the funds by the expiration date.
All funds provided on your Sponsorship Card must be used by the expiration date. Funds are to be used in their entirety each year. Leftover funds do not rollover to the next year.
To view the current balance, please visit www.rackroomshoes.com, click on “Gift Cards.” From there, simply enter the card number located on the back of your Sponsorship Card.
School Liaisons and Store Managers
When a school completes the enrollment application, they designate a school liaison and alternate liaison that will coordinate the efforts between the school and the local Rack Room Shoes partner store. This can be any person who is employed by the school or district (teacher, counselor, administrator, etc.).
The shoes must go to children enrolled in the partner school from low-income families or those living below the poverty level. Rack Room Shoes depends on the school staff to identify which students need the most help and the school staff supplies the necessary information to the school liaison.
