Join TOMS and go one day without shoes

TOMS shoes is famous for one for one. You buy a pair of shoes, he gives a pair of shoes away to a child in need. To help spread awareness about the impact a simple pair of shoes can have on a child’s life, Tom wants us to join him April 8th for One Day Without Shoes. You can go the day, part of the day or even just a few minutes, barefoot, to experience a life without shoes first-hand, and inspire others at the same time.

Click here to join TOM's Shoes and the One Day Without Shoes movement!

Facts:

  • In some developing nations, children must walk for miles to school, clean water and to seek medical help.
  • Cuts and sores on feet can lead to serious infection.
  • Often, children cannot attend school barefoot.
  • In Ethiopia, approximately one million people are suffering from Podoconiosis, a debilitating and disfiguring disease caused by walking barefoot in volcanic soil.
  • Podoconiosis is 100% preventable with basic foot hygiene and wearing shoes
