Nearly eight people in Australia take their own lives every day six of whom are men. For every pair of blue leather safety boots sold, Steel Blue donate $10 to Beyond Blue to support better mental health. So far, we have donated over $400,000 to Beyond Blue and look forward to continuing to build on this.

Community Achievements
Helping Improve Mental Health
Steel Blue is taking steps to make a difference to Mental Health.
Proudly Supporting Breast Cancer Care
With 1 in 7 women being diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime, educating the community is paramount.
Since 2007, Steel Blue have donated $10 per pair of our pink and purple boots purchased and, so far, have raised over $1,500,000. This money is helping Breast Cancer Care WA create education initiatives aimed at increasing awareness and to enable early detection of breast cancer. Receiving no government funding, this charity relies on the generosity of the community so that it can continue to provide its services to those affected by breast cancer at no charge.
Clontarf Foundation
Steel Blue is a proud partner of the Clontarf Foundation.
The Clontarf Foundation improves the education, discipline, life skills, self-esteem and employment prospects of young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men, and by doing so, equips them to participate more meaningfully in society. Success is measured by the extent to which boys graduating from the program either find jobs and keep them or continue in further education.
Soccer Academy Sponsorship
Steel Blue’s dedicated manufacturing partner is based in Jakarta.
We are proud to support the local soccer academy by providing funds to facilitate junior social and sporting development activities and to purchase kits and equipment.
Environment Disaster Support
Where possible, we provide footwear to those affected by environmental disasters and those who assist with recovery efforts.
In 2020 Steel Blue donated over $50,000 to the bushfire recovery services in Australia, as well as a number of boots to assist those with the recovery.
Donating footwear to those in need
In collaboration with Soles4Souls, Steel Blue provides footwear to those in need across the Americas.
Soles4Souls distributes footwear to people in need across the Americas and globally, in order to break the cycle of poverty, empower people and reuse materials that would otherwise go to waste.
To date, Steel Blue has donated over 3,500 pairs of Steel Blue boots to Soles4Souls who have distributed these to people in need across the Americas.
