During this season of giving, See Kai Run, popular manufacturer of the perfect first shoe for new walkers, is making sure that for every pair of shoes sold during November at its retail Web site (http://www.seekairun.com/), a pair also goes to a child in need. As a result of the matching event which ended November 30, 2009, See Kai Run will donate nearly 2,500 pairs of shoes to Soles4Souls before the year’s end.
Soles4Souls is an international charity dedicated to providing footwear to disadvantaged people around the world. Their global efforts primarily target orphanages throughout Central and South America, Europe and Africa. According to Soles4Souls, over 300 million children world-wide have never had one pair of shoes. With this donation, See Kai Run will have shared a total of over 36,000 pairs of shoes to children who need them the most. “Share A Pair” is part of See Kai Run’s overall charitable giving campaign, which focuses on international, national, and local charities for children. See Kai Run would like to thank its customers for making donations such as these possible.
About See Kai Run
See Kai Run and Smaller promote healthy development of babies’ and children’s feet with their ultra-flexible soles, soft leather and wide toe box.

See Kai Run is a family-owned and operated business located outside of Seattle, Washington. The idea was born when founder Cause Haun was on a quest for the perfect first pair of shoes for her son, Kai. Unable to find shoes in fun styles that still promoted the healthy development of little feet, Cause and her husband created their own line of shoes that satisfied all these needs. See Kai Run celebrates its fifth anniversary this year and proudly looks back at their expansion from a few boutiques, mostly in the Seattle area, to stores all around the country and worldwide.
