Spreading the word- One step at a time!


As you know, the TOMS at UGA team attended the University of Georgia's Relay for Life Friday, and it was a blast!

The highlight of the night was the barefoot lap. At 8:30 p.m., our team, many of our friends and a few TOMS fans endured the blustery weather and walked shoeless around the track in honor of those who go shoeless every day. As we walked holding our TOMS flags with pride, we shared the story of TOMS Shoes and the purpose of One Day Without Shoes. The excitement for One Day Without Shoes is mounting as we continue to spread the word around campus and prepare to bare our soles!

Several attendees were interested in learning about TOMS Shoes and its mission as well as the upcoming on-campus events. We collected numerous uniquely decorated paper feet stating the amount of time students pledge to go barefoot April 16 for One Day Without Shoes. A few people also browsed through the TOMS catalog to pre-order shoes for the "Style Your Sole" party that will be held during our One Day Without Shoes extravaganza.
