TOMS ONE DAY WITHOUT SHOES - INSTAGRAM. For each photo posted of bare feet, TOMS gave a pair of shoes to a child in need. Millions of people around the world spent the entire day barefoot and tagged their friends to do the same.
RELATE RECENT NEWS TO PLANNED GIVING. While extraordinarily generous, Prince did not leave a Last Will and Testament, therefore, his legacy philanthropy is left to the discretion of his family AFTER the government’s review.
