Part of the Storm's social justice platform, Force4Change, Kicks for Equality is an annual auction featuring custom designed sneakers worn by Storm players and coaches and other memorabilia.

Since 2022, the campaign has benefited Black Future Co-Op Fund, Washington state’s first Black-women-led philanthropy looking to ignite Black generational wealth, health, and well-being.

Each year we select a talented BIPOC woman sneaker artist to to work with the players to custom design their sneaker. The shoes reflect important causes for Storm players such as mental health, gun violence awareness, Black Lives Matter, Pride, gender equality, indigenous people awareness, and African art and heritage.

In addition to the online auction, the Storm is proud to present Sneakerball, an exclusive event held at the Moët & Chandon Impérial Lounge at Climate Pledge Arena where guests will enjoy a premium dining experience, have the opportunity to bid on exclusive auction items and network with VIP guests.
