Our Story: Empowering Local Communities

Little Feet Foundation was born from lived experience. From the memory of walking barefoot on hot, unforgiving ground. From the quiet pain of thorns piercing skin on the way to school. From knowing, deeply, that learning should never require suffering. Our founder grew up understanding what it means to walk without shoes — not as a story heard, but as a reality lived. Years later, as a teacher working closely with children in underserved communities, those memories resurfaced while watching learners walk long distances to school barefoot, vulnerable to injury, illness, and shame. Little Feet was created from that moment of recognition - a calling to respond, not with pity, but with purpose and dignity.
