Free the little piggies!

On April 8th I am going to be walking around barefoot for a cause! Here is some information from TOMS shoes...
FACTS:
-In some developing nations, children must walk for miles to school, clean water and to seek medical help.
 -Cuts and sores on feet can lead to serious infection.
 -Often, children cannot attend school barefoot.
 -In Ethiopia, approximately one million people are suffering from Podoconiosis, a debilitating and disfiguring disease caused by walking barefoot in volcanic soil.
 -Podoconiosis is 100% preventable with basic foot hygiene and wearing shoes.
