In a statement posted online Saturday, toms shoes coupon founder Blake Mycoskie said it was a mistake to speak at a recent Focus on the Family event. A recent cover story on Focus by Christianity Today mentioned a potential relationship between the footwear company's charity work and the evangelical ministry. Both actions sparked controversy involving the five-year-old footwear company, the Christian organization and its critics over Focus' views of marriage and homosexuality.
After Christianity Today reported that Mycoskie was apparently developing a relationship with Focus on the Family, the news infuriated people who were hoping to do good with their TOMS purchase, through the company's shoe giving program in developing countries. Across Facebook and Twitter on Friday, gay, lesbian, and allied customers expressed outrage that toms stripe shoes would associate itself with an anti-gay, anti-choice group. Ms. Magazine started a petition on Change.org that quickly received more than 400 signatures in just a few hours asking TOMS to drop their relationship with Focus on the Family.
