Today I am walking around barefoot on the TCU campus. Not because I cannot afford shoes to wear, but to bring to people’s attention that children around the world go barefoot every day.
This event is sponsored by TOMS, which just happen to be my favorite shoes ever. I wear a pair practically every day. So instead of just making it another day that I would wear one of my eight pairs of TOMS, I decided to join people across the nation and go “One Day Without Shoes.”
For those of you who do not know anything about TOMS, you should really check out their website (www.tomsshoes.com). The program is amazing, for every pair you buy they will send a second pair to children in need (generally in Africa or South America, but they have done an American drop before).
For those of you who can’t go barefoot, just go for part of the day. That is what I will be doing since I have to wear shoes at work. I have been looking forward to this day since the beginning of the year.
Maybe I will reward myself with a new pair of TOMS. What do you think?

Shoeless it is. I have been looking forward to this as well. Lets spread the word cause there is no easier way to help a child and put great shoes on our feet at the same time. UR an awesome guy!
