We started off the event with delicious lunch. Then we learned what Toms is all about. Toms started in Argentina, and was founded by Blake Mycoskie. He noticed the huge amount of people that were barefoot and decided to help them out, they made and gave away 10,000 pairs of shoes. Can you believe that? He decided to call them "Tomorrow Shoes" or in short "Toms". Now 35 million pairs of Toms have been given away. Did you know that the Philippines is the only country in the world to receive donations from Toms and sell them at the same time?
At the event they showcased their awesome shoes, along with their eyewear and coffee. My dad and I had our eyes on some pretty cool shoes. I personally liked the tribal ones (check them out in the pictures below). Did you know that with every pair you purchase Toms will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need? So when you buy a pair of Toms you make a difference in someone else's life.
