Athletes for a Cure provides assistance for individual athletes in their quest to raise money for better treatments and a cure for prostate cancer. All funds raised from the program go directly to the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Newton Co-Founder, Jerry Lee has battled with prostate cancer since 2005 and continues to be a survivor.

With your help, in 2008 Newton raised $29,000 for the cause. In 2009, we're donating 1% of all footwear sales to help improve treatments for prostate cancer patients and take steps toward finding a cure.

Trickle Up is an organization that provides business education, training and grants for the purpose of encouraging some of the world's poorest people to develop microenterprises. Providing resources for the development of entrepreneurial skills, Trickle Up empowers people living on less than $1 a day to strengthen their communities through gaining financial independence.

Newton Running will be donating $1 for each pair of shoes sold, helping people in Asia, Central America, East Africa and West Africa to start their own business, as a means out of poverty.

One World Running is a nationwide, volunteer operated organization that collects gently used donated shoes and distributes them to needy children and adults around the world. In 2008, One World Running collected, sorted and washed about 16,300 pairs of shoes. Newton Running has donated over 500 pair of new running shoes to since 2008.

In 2010, Newton Running is dedicating warehouse space and a washing machine for OWR to use in cleaning and storing shoes until they are ready to be delivered to their receiving country. Newton employees volunteer their time to help with the process of cleaning and sorting shoes as they arrive at the warehouse. Shoes can be dropped-off at the The Newton Running Lab, Boulder, CO. Find your local drop-off location to help those in need and to keep shoes out of our landfills.
