About


Providing

Shoes are more than just a fashion accessory. People's health and access to opportunities are greatly aided by their footwear. Several charities and NGOs seek to provide shoes to those in need. Before learning about three groups that assist those who are unable to wear shoes, consider why being barefoot might be dangerous.

Around 300 million individuals worldwide cannot afford shoes. Because shoes are typically part of a school or work uniform, children and adults have a tougher difficulty acquiring an education or contributing to the home income if they don't have them.

Risks

Going barefoot also poses a multitude of risks, ranging from burns and damage to contracting a sickness or fungus. Any of these risks might have a detrimental influence on someone by keeping them unwell at home or in the hospital.

To begin with, a child who does not wear shoes is at risk of contracting severe illnesses from the ground. Furthermore, in areas where poverty is prominent, fighting chronic diseases might be difficult due to a lack of doctors and drugs. As a result, children must wear shoes as a matter of health.
