Since 2006, the TOMS community has given nearly 100 million pairs of shoes to people in need. How It All Started While traveling through Argentina in 2006, TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie saw the hardships faced by children without shoes. This inspired him to create a for-profit business with giving at its core. The idea? For every pair of shoes the company sold, a new pair would be given to a child in need. And with that, TOMS—short for Tomorrow’s Shoes—was born.
