Today in class we got to split up into groups and try to find websites (foundations) that help (donate to) The Lost Boys. My group was John, Greg and Julia, we didn’t really have that much trouble finding sites. Julia and I immediately though of the well known shoe brand, Toms. Toms has a program called one for one, this is where whenever someone buys a pair of Toms, a pair of Toms is donated and delivered straight to a country in need. Toms donates to over 40 countries, and has over 20,000 customers. these countries consist of..
1.       Angola
2.       Argentina
3.       Armenia
4.       Bangladesh
5.       Belize
6.       Cambodia
7.       China
8.       Costa Rica
9.       Dominican Republic
10.   DRC
11.   El Salvador
12.   Ethiopia
13.   Gambia
14.   Gaza Strip
15.   Ghana
16.   Guatemala
17.   Guyana
18.   Haiti
19.   Honduras
20.   India
21.   Iraq
22.   Kenya
23.   Lesotho
24.   Liberia
25.   Malawi
26.   Mali
27.   Moldova
28.   Nicaragua
29.   Niger
30.   Peru
31.   Philippines
32.   Romania
33.   Rwanda
34.   Sierra Leone
35.   SOUTH AFRICA
36.   Sri Lanka
37.   Swaziland
38.   Tajikistan
39.   Tanzania
40.   Uganda
41.   Ukraine
42.   United States
43.   Uzbekistan
44.   Zambia
John and Greg both found other sites that were also very useful. I think that we really should proceed further with our want to help The Lost Boys of Sudan, what they have all gone through is treacherous and sad, and anything we can do to help, is definitely something we should strongly consider accomplishing.
