What We Do

A Look into What Stone in Shoe Does 

A few years back, ideas were floating around about a company that could both raise money for anti-trafficking, and raise awareness to motivate individuals to take action. It would be a company that would act like a 'stone in your shoe'.

Stone in Shoe - Art that Irritates

Today, Stone in Shoe is an art company that sells canvas prints to accomplish our two main goals of raising awareness of human trafficking, and raising funds to make a difference. Our artwork is unique in that we desire it to irritate anyone who sees it.

The idea is that when you are irritated by something, you will eventually take action to change it. Like a stone in your shoe, you will eventually take your shoe off to remove the stone. In the same way, we want to provide prints that will cause people to want to join in putting an end to modern slavery.

There are a wide variety of ways you can join with us, from helping to spread awareness on social media, to purchasing a print to support the efforts of others.

One unique opportunity we are excited to share is the ability for anyone to submit their photos to our website. We are looking for photos that are: related to injustice, visually and compositionally exceptional, and emotionally grating. We are looking for art that compels action. You must be the owner of the photo to submit it, and if we select your photo to use in our prints, you will receive a free print as thanks!

Visit the Get Involved page on our website to learn more about submitting your photos. Also, keep an eye out for a possible photo contest in the near future.

For those who want to learn more about us, and human trafficking that plagues the world, read our last blog post, Who We Are.

We are compelled to combat human trafficking because of the heart breaking stories of real people, even kids, who have their lives stolen from them, and are forced to do disgusting, despicable things.

Join us on social media to keep up to date on what we are doing to stop the injustice. The links are in the right sidebar.
