Join Me on TOMS’ One Day Without Shoes

Growing up–in a developing country–seeing kids walking around and going to school without shoes was a common occurrence. I remember seeing my friends at school with blistered feet because their parents couldn’t afford to buy them flip-flops let alone shoes. School for them was more difficult. And, really who couldn’t blame them? After all, imagine trying to learn when your feet have blisters? It’s a completely heartbreaking sight and experience. Sadly, this still happens but thanks to TOMS they are less children suffering.  So, this Tuesday I am going barefoot to bring attention to this cause.  And, I would like you to join me, Lisa Bensley of Beauty By Benz, Makeda Saggau-Sackey of Glamazon Diaries, and Shaunequa Braithwaite of Templeofglam in the venture.

Here are the details:

Join TOMS Shoes on April 10th in a Barefoot Walk to celebrate the Fifth  annual TOMS Shoes: One Day Without Shoes  as we go barefoot to generate awareness for children in need!  Go barefoot for a full day, an hour, or even just a minute for a great cause
