Why creating TOMS?
In developing countries, many children grow barefoot
Providing them shoes would solve different problems :
-many diseases are soil transmitted
-wearing shoes prevents from getting cuts and sores
-Many times children can't attend school barefoot since shoes are part of their uniform
That is why Blake decided to act but still by doing business
