TOMS Day Without Shoes
One April 5th the company that I buy for, our 66 stores across Canada, friends and family will be going without shoes for One Day Without Shoes. It might be cold, it'll probably be uncomfortable, and our feet will certainly get dirty, but by doing so, we’ll help raise awareness of the impact a simple pair of shoes can bring to a child’s life.
One Day Without Shoes is an annual event hosted by TOMS Shoes in which students, friends, parents, strangers, and co-workers host or participate in events without shoes. Some go without shoes for an hour, some for the whole day, but all become a part of a greater movement toward change.
Your involvement will captivate and educate your community/workplace/friends, and impact the lives of children around the world.
Did you know most children in developing countries grow up barefoot? Did you know some children walk without shoes for miles each day, and they can often not attend school without proper footwear? In Ethiopia, approximately 1 million people are suffering from a debilitating disease called podoconiosis, which is 100% preventable with basic hygiene and shoes.
If you could change the lives of children with a simple gesture, would you do for one day what millions do everyday?
This April 5, please lead by example by going barefoot, and help mobilize TOM to be a part of One Day Without Shoes.

Accessible Design in Prosthetics
In her inspiring 2009 TEDTalk, Aimee Mullins redefines what the body can be. Her prosthetic legs are a combination of form, function and aesthetic. She encourages designers to change the idea of “disability” and the definition of beauty by bringing their talents to both the science and the art of designing prosthetics.
