VOS Flips Announce Two Steps at a Time Program
VOS FLIPS ANNOUNCES TWO STEPS AT A TIME™ PROGRAM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH SOLES4SOULS®, THE SHOE CHARITY
100% Recyclable Natural Rubber Sandal to donate a pair of shoes for every pair sold
Nashville, TN – June 2010 – VOS recyclable natural rubber sandals are excited to announce that for every pair of sandals sold the company will donate a pair to a person in need. The Two Steps At A Time™ program will be implemented in partnership with Soles4Souls, the international shoe charity. Soles4Souls has donated more than 8 million pairs of shoes worldwide, and most recently committed more than 1.3 million pairs to the victims of the Haitian earthquake.
VOS was founded to answer a simple question: can people afford to care? VOS believes most people have a genuine desire to help others and the planet, but unfortunately the majority of these people don’t have the time or resources to have a significant impact on their own. Through their eco-friendly sandal and their Two Steps At A Time™ program, VOS offers everyone the possibility to help others, keep the planet clean and they do it without asking people to spend more than what they usually spend.
“We are excited about our partnership with VOS and their Two Steps At A Time™ program,” said Wayne Elsey, Founder and CEO of Soles4Souls. “The simple gift of shoes can truly change someone’s life, and brands like VOS are making a huge impact on the international community with their long-term commitments to make a difference.”
“We believe it’s important to have short and long term goals in our social efforts if we want to have a significant impact in the communities we are supporting,” said José Alejandro Flores, Founder of VOS. “With our Two Steps At A Time™ program and our partnership with Soles4Souls we are taking a right step to get there, but we believe that by taking the left step of providing health care and education to the rubber producing communities that cultivate our raw materials as well, we are truly going to make a difference.”
