If you read Brad Ruggle's blog, you've read about TOMS Shoes. If you have yet to hear about them, let me give you a brief idea of what they do.

Since its beginning in May 2006, TOMS has given over 10,000 pairs of shoes to children in Argentina and 50,000 pairs in South Africa through the purchases of our caring customers. In 2008 TOMS plans to give 200,000 pairs of shoes to children in need around the world.

Our ongoing community events and Shoe Drops allow TOMS supporters and enthusiasts to be a part of this One for One movement...

For every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of shoes to a child in need.

For my birthday, Giles bought me a pair of TOMS shoes as well as a t-shirt, both of which mean a One for One donation is made. I'm geeked! I suspect I'll be wearing them every moment that I am able.
