Red Shoe Day Imperial Valley

Red Shoe Day IV

Thursday, October 12, 2023 • 7:00-10:00 a.m. • Across Imperial County

Learn More and Register Today

Red Shoe Day Imperial Valley is back for the tenth great year! On the morning of October 12, hundreds of volunteers will be singing, dancing, and collecting donations from commuters at key intersections throughout the Imperial Valley.

All proceeds benefit Imperial Valley families who turn to San Diego’s Ronald McDonald House for a place of comfort, care, and compassion while their child is undergoing treatment in a San Diego hospital.

Sign up as an individual, or even better, recruit a team of family, friends, teammates or coworkers!

Questions? Contact Kim Mercado at 858-598-2428.
