Anne V participates in the barefoot challenge in support of the annual TOMS Shoes campaign “One Day Without Shoes” at NYC’s Pier 45 on Tuesday morning (April 4).
One Day Without Shoes is the day we raise awareness of the impact a pair of shoes can have on a child’s life by taking off our own.
“I’ve been a big fan of TOMS Shoes and its founder, Blake [Mycoskie],” the 24-year-old supermodel shared with Just Jared. “For every pair of shoes you buy, another pair goes to a child in need. It’s such a simple idea but so great. They’ve only been around for about five years and they’ve donated over a million shoes!”
Anne added, “There are so many children who have to walk for miles to get to school or collect clean water. A lot of kids can’t get an education because they don’t have shoes. And that’s crazy.”

As for kids of her own, Anne dished a bit about what the future holds for her.
“I would love to have a large family,” said Anne, who’s been dating Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine. “At the end of the day, career and money don’t matter. I came from such a loving family and to me, family is the only thing that matters. So the more, the merrier!”
