Buy a sandal, help some amputees be employed

26092010

I'm wearing the new pair of sandals that I bought from Robin of Doing.gd. They're not just any pair of sandals, but sandals that have interchangeable straps in different styles! They look just like your Teva sandals, but way cooler! And they are made by amputees in Jakarta, Indonesia who had their funding from the Indonesian government cut. Making these sandals gives them an opportunity at being employed, to make a living. So I do implore to each of you reading this: Please pledge to buy a sandal. You can get more information at this page or Tweet @robin_low to find out how you can order a pair. Or two. Or five hundred. Hehe.

They are selling at S$20 a pair. And that's less than a dinner at a restaurant! :) Plus, it's not a donation, you get something really cool out of it. Do feel free to Re-Tweet and share this post to help spread the word!
