Thank you TOMS for making such a big difference in someones life! A friend from high school, named Sarrah got into a terrible car accident about back in June. She was in a taxi, and got hit by an ambulance at an intersection. She had sustained many injuries during the crash. She was on life support for a while, had a brain hemmorhage that effected her short term memory, shattered her pelvis, suffered a broken chest plate and ribs, as well as other injuries. After a month in the hospital, she was finally allowed to go home. She slowly gained back her short term memory. She also had to learn how to walk again, starting with a walker, and now is able to walk on her own in limited doses. Throughout this journey, she lost both her job and apartment in Philadelphia. Sarrahs journey has definitely been difficult, and is far from over but shes been getting through it. About a month ago, Sarrah posted on facebook that she had lost her favorite shoes in the crash; TOMS Cordones. This inspired her friends from her high school class to raise money to help her get back on her feet, and to get her favorite shoes back. Thats when I reached out to TOMS and told them Sarrahs situation. Responding immediately, they were willing to not only donate the shoes, but donate an entire care package of TOMS gear to her! It was put together with love and care, which was made obvious by the handwritten notecards (tied together by shoestrings) that contained words of encouragement. I would just like to thank every one over at TOMS, her graduating class, as well as her family for making all of this possible! They are all very inspiring, and I truly cant thank them enough. If you would like to donate, you can on: gofundme/sarrahstrickland Whether its 50$, 20$ or even 1$, any donations would be greatly appreciated! Let us help Sarrah get back on her feet again!!
