Shoes That Fit, a national 501(c)3 nonprofit, has appointed Hibbett, Inc. President and CEO Jared Briskin and Hyundai Capital America Head of HR Misty Prado to its Board of Directors.

Based in Claremont, CA, the organization helps kids living in poverty in the United States by providing new athletic shoes so they can attend school, play and thrive.

“On behalf of the entire Board, welcome to Misty and Jared. We are excited to have your experiences and perspective enhance our discussions and decision-making processes as we work toward our shared mission at Shoes That Fit,” said Amy Fass, CEO and executive director of Shoes That Fit.

Misty Prado, head of HR at Hyundai Capital America, brings over 20 years of HR and business leadership experience across financial services, automotive and investment management to the Board. She has led high-performing teams across HR strategy, talent development, employee relations, and organizational transformation, focusing on building “inclusive cultures and aligning people strategies with business outcomes.” Raised in a military family with humble beginnings, Misty “understands the impact of community generosity firsthand — an experience that continues to inspire her commitment to giving back and supporting initiatives that uplift others,” the nonprofit stated.

Jared Briskin, president and CEO of Hibbett, Inc., which is an omni-channel active lifestyle retailer with roughly 1,000 stores across 36 states, was promoted to CEO in early 2025 after building a nearly 28-year career with the company.

Briskin joined Hibbett in 1998 as a buyer and progressed through senior leadership roles across merchandising and management. He is said to be deeply committed to “fostering a strong internal culture and creating meaningful impact in the communities Hibbett serves.” Beyond business performance, Briskin is a “dedicated advocate for youth-focused initiatives that support education and athletic opportunity,” said Shoes That Fit.

“Every child deserves to have their basic needs fulfilled, including properly fitting shoes, so they can play, grow, and thrive in their daily lives,” offered Briskin. “I am excited and honored to join the Shoes That Fit board and support its mission.”
