Go Barefoot Today for Day Without Shoes
Take the barefoot challenge with TOMS and AOL on April 5. For one day, see what life is like for those who can't afford shoes.
You may get some looks for walking through the grocery store barefoot today, but do it anyway! April 5 is TOMS One Day Without Shoes.
By going barefoot you are helping bring awareness to the fact that in developing countries, being unable to afford shoes is an unfortunate fact of life for many children. Children often have to walk barefoot for miles to get to school, to get clean water or to find medical assistance. These children are prone to diseases and infections that would be preventable if they just had shoes on.
For every pair of shoes purchased, TOMS donates a pair of new shoes to a child in need.
