How Oliberté, the anti-TOMS, Makes Shoes and Jobs in Africa

For many - for me obvious - reasons I have never liked the over-hyped TOMS Shoes. I don’t want to get into the issue here, because I think Oliberté deserves better. I just love their concept. Oliberté Footwear is the first to make its premium leather footwear exclusively in Africa. And their shoes looks great too! Setting up a good business does not have to be that difficult. Although I am sure it is not too easy to do what they are pulling off right now. True (social) entrepreneurs don’t choose the easiest way. And don’t use their way of working as the core selling point or just simply for marketing reasons. Props to Oliberté!

FRIDAY CHALLENGE

When I was 20 years old I co-founded El Desafío Foundation to help Argentinean children and their families living in poverty creating a brighter future. Today - 7 years later - the once small initiative keeps growing and growing. El Desafío means THE CHALLENGE, and honestly it has been a challenge. I chose a life full of insecurity, but I never regretted my decision. Coming Monday 28 of November I am going back to Argentina again and I need your help. That’s why I created this Friday Challenge. I want to ask you become a permanent donor/social investor of our foundation by clicking here. But you can get something in return:

Become donor and you can challenge me to do something interesting/remarkable/funny/etc. coming period in Argentina. Don’t ask for world peace, but I can bring the Argentinean delicacy like alfajores. Thanks a lot! Your help means the world to me.
