{One Day Without Shoes}

I knew that I would be writing about Toms shoes - just wasn't sure when - then I hopped on-line to see that today is Toms ONE DAY WITHOUT SHOES challenge to help others truly see what it's like to not have shoes.

Toms makes super cool kicks [the burlap pair are my weakness!] and for every pair of shoes you purchase, TOMS gives a BrAnD NeW pair of shoes to a child in need!

Sure water, shelter, and food are the basic necessities, but shoes are too. In many countries children are not even allowed to attend school without shoes. If those children aren't allowed to attend school, who are they going to learn from, how are they going to get any form of education? Not to mention the health hazards that are encountered by such a simple and preventable thing, such as shoes.
