I have always felt deeply saddened by the idea that there are children in the world starving, and without shelter and education. Having children of my own has reminded me of how fragile these children are. When I think about these children and their lack of control over their own situation it makes me want to embrace each one of them and make it better. No child should go to sleep at night with out a bed or shelter. Safety and education should be a right of a child, not a privilege. In our nation alone, there are hundreds of thousands of children going to sleep without a bed at night. . We at Sweet Shoes, believe in giving back to the world, especially to the children who are not yet in control of their own destinies. When I started this company, I knew I wanted to use it to give back. With that said, a portion of the purchase of each pair of Sweet Shoes will be donated to the Save the Children organization.
