Keynote Address by Blake Mycoskie, Founder and Chief Shoe Giver of TOMS Shoes, Inc.

KU Ballroom | 7 p.m.

TOMS' simple promise to give a pair of new shoes to children in need around the world with every pair sold is revolutionizing the way consumers shop. The One for One business model has encouraged conscientious consumers to purchase and give more than 140,000 pairs of new shoes to children in need in just 3 years. By the end of 2009, TOMS will give an additional 500,000 pairs of new shoes to children in need all around the world, including at home in the US. The One for One business model is redefining social entrepreneurship for a new generation.

Can the purchasing power of individuals be used to foster the greater good?  Can an entrepreneur succeed financially and make the world a better place?  The amazing success of TOMS Shoes proves that the answer to both of these questions is a resounding "Yes!"

Admission is free, but tickets are required. Call 229-2545 for tickets.
