Each year, National Shoe the World Day on March 15th shines a light on the value of good footwear for millions of people around the world. Over 500 million children, teens, and adults do not have a pair of shoes to wear. Despite the terrain and the climate, they walk barefoot everywhere. Their daily struggle is one we cannot begin to imagine. Living daily without protection on your feet can lead to a lifetime of problems including pain, injury, cuts, sores, infections, parasites. Life without footwear also affects their health, education, and financial well-being. One issue leads to another, creating a never-ending cycle.
