Kristen Bell Celebrates “One Day Without Shoes” (Video)
Written by Vegetarian Star on April 8th, 2010 in Actresses, Fashion, Videos.
Today is TOMS Shoes annual “Day Without Shoes” and you should celebrate by doing without.
Unless of course, you’re sitting in an office with cubicles–for the sake of your co-workers, keep your feet covered until you’re home.
Vegetarian Kristen Bell is the public face of the campaign this year, as can be seen in the video promo for the event above.
For those living in poverty, going shoeless isn’t an option, and neither are the consequences to not having proper protection.
From OneDayWithoutShoes:
- 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.
After you’ve walked another’s path without shoes, buy your next pair from TOMS, a company with several vegan friendly options that donates a pair of shoes to a child in need for every pair sold.
