About Us
FOUNDER
Maia was only 12 (2017) when she developed the idea for Lazy Sneakers. All she had was a passion to help others and a family to back her. Since the project has started, she has been able to provide sneakers for children, student athletes, families and social services.
HISTORY
Maia observed that some of her peers could not participate in sports because they didn’t have the appropriate footwear. So she launched a project to free up unused sneakers. Lazy Sneakers was launched in January 2018.
MISSION
Lazy Sneakers is a sneaker bank project collecting reusable good conditioned sneakers from the community and then distributing these sneakers to people who need them for FREE!
