Audacy's KQKS (KS107.5)/Denver collected and distributed over 500 pairs of kid's sneakers in partnership with Soles4Souls and the Denver Dream Center in KS107.5's inaugural "Beats and Sneaks," a summer-long collection drive, running June 19 through August 12, in partnership with The Sharpest Rides and Culture Street. The campaign culminated with a distribution event at the Aztlan Recreation Center, where over 500 kids received a new pair of sneakers.

"This is the connection between radio and community engagement... getting out and connecting with our listeners and showing them that we care about our community," said Audacy Regional Vice President of Rhythmic and KQKS Brand Manager DJ Buck.

Soles4Souls turn shoes and clothing into educational and economic opportunities. Soles4Souls programs - 4Opportunity, 4Relief, and 4EveryKid - aim to make a positive difference on the planet and in people's economic, educational, physical, and psychosocial well-being. Since 2006, more than 83 million pairs of shoes and pieces of clothing have helped create opportunities for people across 137 countries.

Denver Dream Center connects people in need to a community of support by providing free resources and services that address immediate and long-term needs in the areas of homelessness, hunger, poverty, addiction, abuse, and education.
