Our Story

Eco-Shoes Africa was founded in 2022 by Moses Taban Mathew and his teammates. Our journey is built on compassion, resilience, and a deep desire to help refugee children live with dignity.

Moses grew up with his mother, who worked hard to provide for him. When he was five years old, she sent him to school so he could have a better future. However, as a single parent, she struggled to afford school supplies, including shoes. Moses often had to wear old, torn shoes that were given to him by his cousin’s sister.
