Have you ever just walked around without shoes all day? Its kinda nice on a warm summer day. Maybe your just walking in grass or taking a stroll on the soft warm sand of the beach. But what about walking down a dirt road? rocks jutting out of the ground and cutting your foot. suddenly a walking without shoes isn't a good idea. Oh well just throw some sandals or nike's on and walk down the road easy. But what if you don't have shoes? what if you've never had shoes? Suppose you had to walk around on the hard, rocky ground with nothing protecting you feet. Kids around the world have to do this everyday. The truth is not everyone has the extra money laying around to buy shoes. Most of the money has to go to food or shelter, mean while a childs feet are getting bruised and cut just by a normal days walk.
I know us fortunate people of today who actually have shoes and live a better life would never have to worry about such a thing. Its our duty to help those who need it then. But what should we do? Well you can do something that you probably know and enjoy very much, shop. Buy a Pair of TOMS shoes and they will donate a pair of shoes to someone in need. TOMS has already donated 60,000 shoes to countries like Argentia and South Africa and isn't stopping yet. And all you have to do to help is buy a pair of shoes, and believe me these aren't some ugly pair of crocs your buying. TOMS shoes are some pretty sweet lookin kicks and their are tons to choose from.
