Before stunning us with her dance moves at Sunday night’s Oscars, Charlize Theron was worrying about shoes. No, not her fancy heels, but the sunny orange flats she recently designed for TOMS and her charity, the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project (CTAOP).

On Friday night, the actress got together with TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie at his flagship store in Venice, Calif., to introduce her limited-edition shoes for women and children, which feature the sunshine logo of her organization and its motto, “Look Within. Think Beyond. Reach Out.”

This is the third time TOMS and CTAOP have partnered (they first joined forces in 2009) to raise money for Theron’s organization, which works to keep African youth safe from HIV/AIDS.

“[TOMS] has been an incredible partner through the years and we are grateful for their ongoing support,” Theron said in a release. “This collaboration is a true representation of the passion all of us share for the safety and well-being of the youth in Africa and the impact we can make when we come together.”

Find the shoes ($58 for women, $34 for kids) at TOMS.com, TOMS.co.uk and the TOMS store in Venice.

How Denise Richards Is Fighting Kidney Cancer, One Heel at a Time

Denise Richards is taking on kidney cancer — and she’s looking great while doing it. The actress recently collaborated with ShoeDazzle for a second time, launching two sexy heels as part of the brand’s Celebrity Shoe Design Program for Charity.

This time around, Richards teamed up with a young teen named Taylor Filorimo (known to friends as “Tay”) to design two shoes to support the Kidney Cancer Association. Tay was suffering from the same strain of kidney cancer that took Richards’s mother in 2007 — and sadly, Tay passed away in September.

“Tay loved fashion, and it was exciting for her to design a shoe for ShoeDazzle to help raise money and bring awareness to this rare type of cancer,” Richards tells PEOPLE. “Tay’s grace and positivity as she battled the disease was truly inspirational, and something I will never forget.”

Have you always wanted to flaunt your fit figure? Give strangers a peek at your rear? Turn lots — and lots and lots — of heads? Then we’ve got the dress for you!

On Friday, Kristen Stewart donated the sheer Zuhair Murad creation she wore to the Breaking Dawn — Part 2 premiere in Los Angeles to the 12-12-12 Auction for Sandy Relief. The actress was inspired to help by her appearance on the 12-12-12 concert telecast, and signed the dress to up the value, too. The strapless gown — which features peekaboo paneling and matching panties — is already pulling in $1,750 on charitybuzz.com, with three days of bidding left to go.

Other items available for auction include a limited edition guitar signed by 12-12-12 concert performers like Bon Jovi, Alicia Keys, Chris Martin, Bruce Springsteen and Paul McCartney, plus a signed sweatshirt from Kanye West (the one he wore during the show!) and the concert-used drumsticks owned by Dave Grohl. Auctions are open through Dec. 20, and all proceeds will benefit the Robin Hood Relief Fund. It’s a great way to give back — and get something cool — this holiday season.
