Sharing: One Day Walk without Shoes

This is an annual event by TOMS where we take off our shoes to raise global awareness for children's health and education. (www.toms.com/onedaywithoutshoes)

You too can make a difference. Feel free to join in this once a year event. No registration fee. All you need is your barefoot. For more info, visit TOMS Philippines Facebook page.


I took a walk yesterday together with the Hanson fans I've met online. They have been supporting this event for 4 years and this was my 2nd time to join them. It is just another charitable act that does not require you to pay or perform or what, but just walk barefoot. Who doesn't want to spread awareness, make a difference by just walking without a shoes?

This 4th event was held at SM Aura Skypark. The assembly starts at the Sky Park, walk down to the ground level by stairs and go back up to the SkyPark.  It is a free event for all. Feel free to register when you get a chance to see it happening around. Don't worry, free bottled waters and wet wipes are available after the walk. See you next time!


This is about More Than Shoes
Children lacking access to education and good health struggle to break the poverty cycle for themselves, their families and their communities.

With the complex issues surrounding poverty, there is not one solution, but many working together. We believe that shoes play an important role in helping keep children healthy, educated and moving toward opportunities for a better future.

Sharing: Story-telling with the kids

I got the chance to join and volunteer with The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf - Caring Cup event and I am so happy to be a part of it. The mission is to share a little time with the kids who are currently confined in QMMC. We read books, play games, eat snacks and ended it with gift giving.
