Friends of TOMS has a chance to win $50,000 through its first-ever fundraising effort and we need your support! Think how many Shoe Drops that could support and how much nearer we could get to our goal of eradicating Podoconiosis.
Here's how it works: from now until November 6th, participating non-profits in America's Giving Challenge will compete for cash awards based on the number of donations made to their cause.
We're excited about this challenge, but we need your help. You can help by donating something - anything - even as little as $10. And just as important, you can help by telling your friends and spreading the word. We need your help EVERY DAY of this contest.
Let's all help Friends of TOMS win $50,000. We can do this!

TOMS Around Town
Athens has spotted another TOMS Supporter! On Sunday, October 4th, American Eagle shopper, Vaille Hurt came into the store sporting TOMS Shoes. Vaille is an 8th grade student at Malcom Bridge Middle School in Bogart, Georgia, and when asked why she loves TOMS, she responded, "I love TOMS because they work for a great cause to help children that don't have it as great as we do."
Would you like to be featured in our next TOMS Around Town update? Just wear your TOMS and get spotted by a UGA TOMS Shoes Campus Rep, and you may be the next face of the TOMS Around Town update.
