In the spirit of the Green Toe initiative to reduce the ecological footprint left from making shoes, Simple Shoes is a platinum sponsor for the 2006 Kokua Festival.
The Kokua Festival is two days of music, celebration, and environmental awareness on Maui and Oahu. Proceeds will benefit the Kokua Hawaii Foundation, who brings environmental education to the schools of Hawaiis communities.
Due to the spirit of the event and the charity, the promoters of the Kokua Festival exclusively accept sponsorships from companies and groups committed to sustainability.
“We are honored to be alongside artists, groups, and other companies active in the sustainability movement to support an education-based organization building awareness to future generations of island communities. They are often the first affected by the perils of the environment. The
nature of the Kokua Festival reflects a greater concern about the health of the planet. Green Toe is our effort to reduce the ecological footprint left from shoes, and supporting the Kokua Hawaii Foundation is a perfect fit!” – Monica DeVreese, Simple Brand Manager.
