Tom's Shoes/Hope for Africa Barefoot Walk, TOMORROW Tuesday, March 23.


TOMS SHOES Party on Campus! This info from the Associated Student Body of the Universtiy of Mississippi:

As part of the celebration of the inauguration of Chancellor Dan Jones, many student groups will be sponsoring days of service in honor of Chancellor Jones. The theme for the inauguration is Transformation through Service. Thus, throughout the next two weeks, we will show how students are transforming lives on the local, state, national, and global level.


Our first event is the Tom's Shoes/Hope for Africa Barefoot Walk, which will be held Tuesday, March 23.


TOMS Shoes and Hope for Africa present the Barefoot Walk. This Tuesday, starting at 3 PM in the union plaza, participants will have the opportunity to come decorate a TOMS/HFA T-Shirt (the first 100 people get a T-Shirt for free!) while listening to some great acoustic performances.


We'll start the walk around campus at 4:45. The forecast looks good, but we'll be there rain or shine! If you want to walk in socks, you'll be asked to make a $3 donation, and for shoes, $5. Of course, we encourage everyone to go barefoot to experience a life without shoes firsthand and to help spread awareness of the impact a simple pair of shoes can bring to a child's life.

Sign up sheets are located in the ASB office now, and they will also be available the day of the event.
Thanks, and we can't wait to see you Tuesday.
