01
Footwear + equipment drives
Year-round, wherever the need is. Cleats, sneakers and gear delivered to underserved youth programs — in Houston, in the cities where K'Lavon plays, and anywhere a partner opens a door.
Founded by K'Lavon Chaisson
Touch a Sole Foundation
A pair of cleats should never be the reason a kid sits out a season. The foundation puts footwear, equipment and mentorship in front of young people who need them — and shows up in person to do it.

What it does
Three things, done properly
02
Signature community events
Three every year: the Hang with the Mustangs youth football camp each summer, the Turkey Giveaway at Thanksgiving, and Shop With a Jock every December.
03
Education + leadership
The gear gets a kid on the field. Mentorship keeps them there — leadership opportunities and educational resources that outlast the event itself.
On the ground
Three signature events every year
Every summer · Houston, TX
Hang with the Mustangs
A free, full-day youth football camp — real coaching, gear and mentorship, at no cost to a single family. Houston is where K'Lavon came up, so the camp goes home every year.
Thanksgiving
The Thanksgiving drive
Groceries handed to families in person, never a pallet drop, alongside local shelters and community organizations in whichever city he is playing that season.
December
Shop With a Jock
Every kid gets a budget, a cart and a player walking the aisles with them. No list, no rules. A lot of them shop for their family before they shop for themselves.
Somebody paid for that pair
Every kid who takes the field got there because someone decided a gear list was not going to be the reason they sat out. You can be that somebody.
