In 2006, during a trip to Argentina, American Blake Mycoskie was touched by the poor condition of his friends’ feet. He then launched the TOMS<\/strong> brand, based on the One for One principle: <\/strong>for every pair of shoes purchased, a donation of a new pair is made to a child in need. The same concept has been launched with eyewear: a pair of TOMS glasses purchased will help a person in need to regain their sight. <\/p>\n

On April 29, the 7th edition of One Day Without Shoes will take place. This is a global event designed to raise awareness of the health and education needs of underprivileged children. <\/p>\n

Indeed, millions of children around the world live without shoes, and this prevents them from accessing education, as shoes are compulsory to enter a classroom. Walking barefoot also exposes them to injuries, infections and crippling illnesses. <\/p>\n

Tomorrow, everyone can support the operation by photographing themselves barefoot and posting this image on social networks with the hashtag #withoutshoes, to interact with the world on this international initiative and make a contribution.<\/p>\n

So don’t forget to take off your shoes for a good cause tomorrow, and be original!<\/p>\n
