The document discusses ways for TOMS, a company that provides shoes to people in need through a one-for-one model, to inspire continued generosity from customers and strengthen its cause. It explores using mobile technologies like barcode scanning to allow customers to follow the journey of the shoes they helped provide and see the impact of their contribution. This could offer an personalized experience that provides instant gratification and encourages repeat purchases and giving.
