This month, Because International’s founder Kenton Lee and 44 others celebrated our 10 year anniversary by taking a trip back to where the story began—Nairobi, Kenya. There, members of the team and trip participants had the opportunity to see how far our organization has come—from a simple but innovative idea to a Patents for Humanity Award-winning shoe that’s being produced in Kenya and has been distributed around the world.

While in Kenya, Kenton took a moment to reflect on his journey and where Because is headed.
