One for One Movement

"With every pair you purchase, TOMS will help a person in need. ONE FOR ONE"

Weather it's a new pair of shoes or a pair of sunglasses, with every purchase Toms will give to people in need. If you buy a pair of shoes Toms will give a free pair of shoes to somebody who has no shoes in a developing country. If you but a new pair of sunglasses Toms will help give sight to somebody in the developing world who cannot see properly. They provide eye tests, surgery and glasses- free of charge. "One for one"
 Toms provide shoes in more than 60 countries and they provide eyesight in 13 countries.
Why are shoes so important?
If you don't wear shoes your feet can get cut and infected, this will make walking very painful but it also means that you are more open to getting infections and more prone to picking up diseases.
 In some countries shoes are required to be able to attend school. Some children are denied an education because they simply cannot afford a pair of shoes or a uniform,  so by providing them with shoes we can help to further their education. In cases such as these Toms also helps to provide children with school uniforms.
