ROMA Boots has donated over $10 million worth of rain boots, along with school supplies, to children in 35 countries. For every pair purchased, a brand new pair goes to a child navigating unpaved roads, harsh winters, and wet conditions without proper footwear. Founded by a Romanian immigrant who received his first boots as a child, ROMA (amor spelled backward) combines fashion with philanthropy to "give poverty the boot." Ten percent of proceeds also fund education initiatives through the ROMA Foundation. When you shop ROMA through Melioryzm, you're protecting children's health and futures.

In many parts of the world, children walk to school through mud, standing water, and harsh weather without proper footwear. Wet feet lead to illness. Illness leads to missed school. Missed school leads to fewer opportunities. A simple pair of rain boots can break that cycle.
ROMA's founder knows this firsthand. Growing up in a remote Romanian village, he received his first pair of boots (hand-me-downs) at age six. They changed everything. Years later, after immigrating to America, trips back to Romania revealed children still facing the same struggles.
The name ROMA is "amor" (love) spelled backward, representing both the motivation behind the brand and the Roma communities initially served. For every pair you buy, a brand new pair goes to a child in need, along with school supplies. These donations happen multiple times per year through partners like World Vision and Buckner International.
The boots themselves are stylish and functional, designed for rainy days in the city or mud on the farm. Fashion-forward colors and patterns make them something you want to wear, not just something you feel good buying.
Your rain boots keep your feet dry. They also keep a child healthy, in school, and moving toward a better future.
