Billy4Kids

Billy4Kids is a "charitable association" launched by Billy Lerner and his co-director Alexson Roy. Billy4Kids collects worn shoes by placing boxes around cities "where people can drop off their gently used sneakers" for children who need footwear in developing locations like Haiti, Ghana and Brazil. Billy4Kids founder, Bill Lerner, also uses 110 iPark garages located in New York to place "large green boxes" where people can donate.
Company history
Billy4Kids was conceived after a conversation about children who were dying from foot-born diseases contracted from unprotected feet in developing countries. William Lerner "Billy" and Alexson Roy began to distribute shoes to Haiti and other poverty stricken countries.
Recognitions
On July 16, 2014 Bill Lerner, the founder of Billy4Kids, was honored with the Humanitarian Award by Stephen Baldwin at The 3rd Annual Edeyo Gives Hope Ball.
