"BJ's is joining Hav A Sole in its commitment to bring positive change to those who need it most," said Heidi Rogers, Senior Vice President of Marketing at BJ's Restaurants, Inc. "Shoes are not a luxury. They are a necessity. We are proud to partner with an organization that shares our vision for making moments matter not only for our guests but also for our community, because we believe that the real magic happens when we all join together."
Rikki Mendias founded Hav A Sole based on his own lack of access to footwear as a child. "Shoes are a steppingstone to a world of possibilities, and Hav A Sole is honored to work with BJ's Restaurants and its communities to make a difference in the lives of children across the country," said Mendias. "With each pair of shoes donated, we're helping kids walk confidently toward a brighter future."
For both BJ's Restaurants and Hav A Sole, providing help to communities in need is personal. Through social activism, volunteering, and community building, BJ's Restaurants and Hav A Sole have touched thousands of lives, offering not just shoes, but also a sense of hope and community to those in need.

About Hav A Sole
Hav A Sole's mission is to provide marginalized populations with quality footwear to encourage healthier lifestyles. Hav A Sole has touched thousands of lives through social activism, volunteering and building community. This movement not only affects the individuals who receive the shoes, but it increases a sense of social responsibility with its young volunteers offering them a way to get involved in their community. Built upon a grassroots model, Hav A Sole's goal is to double our efforts so we can increase the amount of shoes given out and touch even more lives. While we receive support from friends from all over the nation, we are especially grateful for the support of ten local Nike outlets who have donated thousands of shoes so the Hav A Sole team could deliver them to homeless individuals and at risk youth.
