Amanda Rutter, a student at Camas High School, chose to research and promote TOMS Shoes for her senior project. The five-year old company distributes shoes to children in 23 countries. "Companies like TOMS give me faith in the fashion industry," Rutter said. "Instead of selling average products for double or triple the money they're worth and making a ton of profit for themselves, TOMS' whole company purpose is to give shoes to people and not cheap factory made ones, but high quality, long lasting, durable shoes."

A Camas High School senior has been inspired by a business that gives away a pair of shoes for every pair it sells.

As part of her senior project, Amanda Rutter has been taking orders for TOMS Shoes.
