My Birthday Wish – TOMS Shoes

In 2006 an American traveler, Blake Mycoskie, befriended children in Argentina and found they had no shoes to protect their feet. Wanting to help, he created a company that would match every pair of shoes sold with a pair given to a child in need. One for One. Blake returned to Argentina with a group of family, friends and staff later that year with 10,000 pairs of shoes made possible by caring TOMS customers.

The fact that companies like TOMS are forming with a greater purpose in mind speaks to the increasing spirit of love that is surfacing in our culture. I am excited that this year for my birthday my wife ordered me a pair. I am joining the TOMS movement to live love through shoes.
