#DARETOGOBAREchallenge2015

Use the power of social media and make a difference in the lives of people who live in poverty without basic necessities such as footwear

 

The #DARETOGOBARE2015 challenge aims to raise awareness for the charity barefoot walkathon Bare Your Sole 2015 (May 30), and also the plight of Habitat for Humanity’s beneficiaries. Funds raised will go towards supporting Habitat for Humanity Singapore’s Project Homeworks, which is a local initiative aimed at improving the living conditions of the elderly, the sick and the physically challenged living in one-room flats in Singapore.

The first step is to capture a photo or video of yourself going barefoot at a place where one wouldn’t normally be barefooted – a trip to the supermarket or even shopping along Orchard Road.

Next, tag @ 5 friends to do the same challenge and upload the post on Facebook/Google+/Instagram/Twitter with the hashtag #DARETOGOBARE2015.

Finally, if your friends are barefoot-shy, have them make a donation and show their support at www.bareyoursole.org.sg/donate.
