Giving Back and Paying Forward

Supporting Our Community

A key pillar of the RC Outfitters mission is to give all we can to charities who serve our community, many who have been working long before we got here and shaped this community before we took our first breaths.

From buying back gently used shoes from our customers to donate and purchasing thousands of new socks for those who cannot afford them to producing hundreds of charity events, donating gift cards for community causes and offering competitive pay and benefits to our team, we consider giving back to our community an essential responsibility of running a business.

When you shop at RC, this is what you’re supporting with your money. Watch the video below to learn more.

  • The gift is giving. And that's what RC Outfitters has been doing for decades. When you move the mind and the body, physically and mentally, you can solve the issues that come out of poverty, geography and disfunction. Adam (and RC) show us how to do it. Carl Cannon, ELITE Community Outreach

  • It's become the hallmark of RC Outfitters; it's part of the fabric of this place we call home. We just could not do the things we do without that entrepreneurial spirit, that caring concern for people. All of that, when brought together, makes greater Peoria a remarkable place to live. Steve Thompson, Easterseals Central Illinois

  • RC contributes so many wonderful gifts in the line of shoes, clothing, and socks...for the shelters and for OSF. It is such a precious gift. Sister Judith Ann, OSF Foundation

  • This community gave me all of the opportunities I have. I was born and raised here. I went to school here. I ran here. This community lifted me up when I was down. This community is the place I call home. It's the place my team calls home. In every breath we take, how can we make this place a little better at the end of the day than it was when we woke up this morning? Adam White, RC Outfitters
