TOMS is no longer a shoe company... we're a one-for-one company.

If whatever you do helps just one person, you've done something wonderful.

Who is Tom? There is no Tom. If we sell a pair of shoes today, we give away a pair of shoes tomorrow. Originally we thought of "Tomorrow's Shoes," but I could only fit "TOMS" on the label. I had no idea everybody would want to meet him. There is no Tom; it's an idea for a better tomorrow.

Giving is what fuels us. Giving is our future.

Giving builds loyal customers and turns those customers into supporters...You can find passion and profit and meaning all at once, right now.

The greatest competitive advantage is to allow your employees to be part of something. Something bigger than what you're doing.

If you just go out and try to make money by starting a business, you're going to come up with something that's just like what everyone else has done. But if you look at the world and see opportunities that can be taken more seriously, then you come up with a great idea.
