The Walk + Style Your Sole Parties

TOMS Shoes and HANSON would love your help in launching The Walk + Style Your Sole Party in your town. What is The Walk and What is a Style Your Sole Party? Good questions!The Walk is an event where people walk for one mile barefoot to publicly demonstrate how many children in the world live without basic things such as shoes. - In conjunction with The Walk, A Style Your Sole Party is an event where people can design their own pair of TOMS Shoes! Each time somebody buys a pair of TOMS Shoes, a pair is donated to a child in Africa without shoes. The Walks began last fall when HANSON and TOMS first joined up on The Walk Tour and thousands walked over 48 miles to help reach the 50,000 shoe goal for South Africa. Now it is your turn to set up a walk of your own.Setting up an event in your town is easy! Just follow these steps:
Pick a place & time/date to start – All walks must start somewhere! It can line up with the Hanson tour as it swings through your town. It doesn't have to though, it's completely up to you. If you are a student, it would be great if the event could take place on your college campus.
Invite your friends & Promote the event – Promoting your event is easy with the tools provided on The Walk page (live link to page). You’ll be actively selling TOMS Shoes. Each time a pair of shoes is bought, a pair will be delivered to a child in need.
Order Your Shoes – Once you’ve gathered everyone’s sizes and money, place your order (2 weeks before your event) by emailing TheWalk@TOMSshoes.com or call 310.566.3175. You can also order the special edition Great Divide Shoe with the white shoes you need for you and your friends to customize during your event. Only want the Great Divide Shoe? Visit www.TOMSshoes.com to order your pair. Each pair of shoes will also come with two special music downloads – the song “Great Divide” and a special acoustic version of "Great Divide", recorded when HANSON was in Africa. The downloads raise money for HIVSA, a research hospital in South Africa who are working to stop the mother-to-child transmission of HIV/AIDS.
Partner up with a shoe retailer – Find a shoe retailer you can partner with – perhaps they will even be interested in hosting your Style Your Sole party.
Take The Walk and enjoy your party! – you worked hard, enjoy it! You just got great shoes!Head to Hanson.net for more information.
