About Us

Rejuvenated Soles is a black-led non-profit organization co-founded by Allana Arundell and Siobban Reynolds in 2020, based in Toronto, Canada. Allana and Siobban’s vision grew from their similar lived experience growing up in underprivileged neighborhoods and the social barriers they faced. Their love for sneakers, basketball, positive mental and physical health, and community engagement are the pillars that drive Rejuvenated Soles and their desire to empower youth.

Rejuvenated Soles’ mission is to empower at-risk youth in low-income neighborhoods with the opportunity to have access to new, slightly used, and/or refurbished soles (sneakers). With community-based events and a touch of sneaker culture, the vision of Rejuvenated soles is to foster relationships within these neighbourhoods and ensure that all youth across the Greater Toronto Area lead positive mental and physical lives.
