OUR STORY
Shoes on Sale began as a shoe sale under a tent in Central Park in 1994. It was an inspired call-to-action of FFANY and co-founders Jodi and Jerome Fisher to join the generosity of the shoe industry alongside compassionate customers to raise funds for breast cancer education, research, and finding a cure.
Fashion Footwear Charitable Foundation (FFCF) now operates Shoes for a Cure, the largest fundraising event of the shoe industry. The foundation has donated over $65 million to fund first-step breast cancer research at some our nation’s leading research organizations. Follow our journey @shoesforacure
