This 10-Year-Old Is Bringing Shoes to Girls in Need in Ghana

In developing countries like Ghana, an estimated 15 percent of school-age children suffer from parasitic diseases, partly due to lack of proper footwear. And while countless nonprofits donate millions of shoes a year to kids in need, kids quickly wear out — or grow out of — their shoes.

That's why 10-year-old Khloe Thompson brought a group of Ghanaian girls a special gift: The Shoe That Grows [1]. These sandals actually grow with kids and can adjust up to five shoe sizes.
