The Shoe That Grows: 500,000 Kids, 100 Countries, One Crazy Idea | Kenton Lee and Andrew Kroes
About this episode
Kenton Lee discusses his innovative project, The Shoe That Grows, which provides shoes for children in need across the globe.
A girl in Kenya with shoes too small to fit properly sparked an idea that every major shoe company rejected — and that Kenton Lee built anyway. The Shoe That Grows, now worn by 500,000+ children across 100 countries, joins Care More Be Better alongside Because International CEO Andrew Kroes for a conversation about building something genuinely useful and the question at the heart of it all: what is your because?
