What is Shoebox Project?

In 2006, United Way of Greater Atlanta’s Shoebox Project was launched as a campaign to collect shoeboxes filled with toiletries for men, women and children in need throughout Greater Atlanta. More than 13 years later, Shoebox Project has been adopted by United Ways and is making an unbelievable impact in the lives of people across the country.
