The Shoe That Grows - A shoe that expands 5 sizes and lasts for years, created for kids living in poverty. Without shoes, people are vulnerable to soil-transmitted diseases and parasites and children are particularly vulnerable. Since children's feet grow so quickly, they often outgrow donated shoes within a year, leaving them once again exposed. The Shoe That Grows is manufactured in Kenya which provides employment and lasting change. Pursuit: This business accelerator helps entrepreneurs take their innovative products that improve lives to the next level.
