If there are two things that any Campus Diva loves it’s shoes and a great cause. So what could possibly be better than combining them? With TOMS shoes, for men, women and children, we have the opportunity to unite these passions.
Three years ago Blake Mycoskie visited Argentina and was distraught when he realized the children he met while there did not have shoes to protect their feet. That’s when he came up with the brilliant idea to found TOMS shoes. Described as “the ultimate feel-good purchase,” for every pair of shoes that you buy from TOMSshoes.com, a pair will be donated to a child in need. Their comfortable boots, and stylish flats range in price from $44-$98 dollars, and it certainly won’t leave you suffering from buyer’s remorse. If only I could say that about all of my purchases.
Not really in the market for new flats? Check out the selection of hoodies, t-shirts or hats… and if you find something you like and decide to buy it that will also result in the donation of a pair of shoes.
Since the beginning of this company, over 140,000 pairs of shoes have been donated and by the end of 2009, it is their mission to reach 300,000 pairs. So, come on Socialites, let’s help them reach their goal!
