Over the past seven years,
we've listened and learned
with every pair of new shoes
given. With the support of
our amazing network of
Giving Partners and the
continued support of our
community, we've reached
this major milestone and
proven that business can fuel
good and sustain giving.
We're seeing remarkable
results with shoe giving.
Shoes are helping improve
school attendance and
enrollment.
They're combined with
screenings to combat
malnutrition. They're given in
conjunction with
medication to fight
hookworm.
Further, our model is one that
can work beyond shoes.
Since we launched TOMS
Eyewear, we've helped
restore
sight to more than 150,000
individuals around the world.
And we look forward to
finding new ways to help
others. One for One.®
WE'VE GIVEN  
10
MILLION  
PAIRS OF  
SHOES TO  
CHILDREN  IN  
NEED,  
TEACHING US  
10
MILLION  
LESSONS.
We currently make Giving
Pairs in Ethiopia, Kenya,
Argentina and China. Within
two years, we will produce
one third of our Giving
Shoes in the regions where
we give them. By producing
more shoes locally we will
create and support jobs in
places where they are
needed. We are testing
production in India and are
looking to expand
manufacturing in Africa and
other regions.
In Haiti, we are in the early
stages of getting production
off the ground. We've also
partnered with local artists
to create a line of hand-
painted shoes for our
customers - helping create
and support jobs in a place
where we also give.
And we're looking to offer
more styles that feature
locally produced textiles.
Our sight giving empowers
communities and supports
sustainable eye-care
organizations in the
developing world. We work
with locally based
organizations that train
residents to provide
professional care. So it's an
investment in clinics, people
and even local jobs.
WE ARE  
PRODUCING  
GIVING SHOES  
IN THE REGIONS  
WHERE WE GIVE  
THEM.
When we began in 2006, our giving was
managed by just two people. Since then
we've hired a Chief Giving Officer and built
a team of more than 20 individuals
dedicated to every aspect of giving,
including strategic planning, logistical
support, program development and impact
measurement. And our team brings a
world of know-how, with significant
experience in public health and at NGOs.
WE'VE GIVEN  10  
MILLION PAIRS OF  
SHOES TO CHILDREN  
IN NEED, TEACHING  
US  10 MILLION  
LESSONS.
WE'VE GIVEN  
MILLIONS OF  
DOLLARS TO  
ORGANIZATIONS  
THAT HELP THOSE  IN  
NEED.
Our work in the field has also
inspired us to make significant
contributions to helping end
podoconiosis, a painful and
stigmatizing form of elephantiasis
that afflicts millions of people who
live and work barefoot in silica-rich
volcanic soil. We’re giving shoes to
children to prevent the next
generation from getting it, and
investing in research, mapping,
expansion of treatment programs
and clinics, community education,
patient rehabilitation and advocacy.
When we started there weren't many companies like us.
Today, we're inspired by the growing number of social
entrepreneurs who make giving an everyday reality.
Together with their customers, they're providing food,
water, shelter, medicine, school supplies, mosquito nets,
soccer balls and so much more to people in need.
We want social entrepreneurs to succeed, so we're
developing ways to use our platform to support their
ventures. In addition, the Start Something That Matters
Foundation has begun to help innovators bring their ideas
to life, and we can't wait to see what the future holds.
WE ARE  
HELPING  
OTHER  
COMPANIES  
SUCCEED AT  
GIVING.
