Our TOMS shoes event...

Well, the big day finally arrived...our TOMS shoes fundraiser for the LIONS for AFRICA club at JSERRA High School.  Bennett is doing an internship for TOMS shoes and is the campus rep.  They are a fantastic company that donates a pair of shoes to a child in need for every pair sold...this month they are working to donate 30,000 pairs to Ethiopia... The girls that drove the van are called VAGABONDS and they travel across the country visiting schools that have campus reps like Bennett and run these events...
Here are the club kids that got students to sign up to buy and decorate a pair of shoes...
Cameron and Tess helped unload all the shoes to be decorated...
We watched a short movie about TOMS shoes and then we pulled out the spray paint and markers and got to work decorating our shoes...
The finished products...FABULOUS!!
At the end the "Vagabonds" did a video interview with Cameron and Tess and had them say "WE LOVE TOMS SHOES!!"  They will be part of the next documentary on the School reps and Vagabond tours...stay tuned!!

Very cool! TOMS has a cool thing that is great for Christmas. For $49.50 you get a DVD about the company and what they do and a gift certificate for an pair of shoes under $50. It comes in a cute box with a TOMS sticker. I got one for my sister (I hope she doesn't read your blog!)
