One for One

Toms is an amazing shoe company that donates shoes to children in South America, Africa, Afghanistan, Haiti, US, China, Cambodia, and Armenia. Every one you buy they give one pair of Toms to a child in need.

Most children in these countries grow up without shoes; the leading cause of death is these countries come from soil-transmitted diseases which came easily be prevented by wearing shoes. But these kids don't have any, this is why Blake Mycoski created Toms. Their first shoe drop was to a couple villages in Argentina in 2006, but now they've grown. They recognized many other countries whose children are in need of shoes and they've teamed up with humanitarians and health organizations across the globe.
