Who We Are

716SNKRS INC. was founded in 2024 by Veteran, Jon Singleton, who recognized the need for a local organization dedicated to helping the community's youth through sneakers and athletic scholarships. The name 716SNKRS, came from Jon's personal social media handle, which included our area code and an abbreviated spelling of the word "sneakers."

At 716SNKRS INC., we are committed to ensuring that everyone has access to quality athletic footwear and the opportunity to pursue their athletic goals. Our benefits program provides assistance to those in need who qualify, whether it be for athletic shoes or athletic scholarships.

 We understand the importance of educating our community members on the importance of  properly fitting footwear, as well as proper footwear for a dedicated sport.

We support all youth sports requiring athletic footwear. Children should be age-eligible for their chosen sport in order to request assistance. We believe in support both on and off of the field. We welcome invitations to athletic events from any of our beneficiaries!

716SNKRS INC. has a large support system with an online sneaker community. In April of 2024, we decided to host online sneaker drawings in order to include our supporters outside of the WNY region. These drawings help to raise the funds needed to provide children with sneakers and financial assistance for their sport. If you live within the United States, we encourage you to enter our drawings! They change monthly, with drawings being held on the 16th of the month.
