One for One- TOM’S
So here’s the deal… Everyone needs shoes right?? Right!! I hear of people spending hundreds of dollars on their shoes each year- even hundreds of dollars on ONE PAIR of shoes! In my head I think CRAZY!!- especially when some people do not even have the ability to own one pair of ratty-tatty old shoes.
How do we solve that problem?? Well Blake figured that out for us! Here is the scoop…
One for One Movement
In 2006, American traveler Blake Mycoskie befriended children in Argentina and found they had no shoes to protect their feet. Wanting to help, he created TOMS Shoes, a company that would match every pair of shoes purchased with a pair of new shoes given to a child in need. One for One. Blake returned to Argentina with a group of family, friends and staff later that year with 10,000 pairs of shoes made possible by TOMS customers.
