Just ran across this cool tee from FiveFour. The design is inspired by A Better LA, the nonprofit, founded by Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, that has been working to stop gang-violence and rebuild commuities across the city.
Mike Fretto (founder of Rosa Loves) and his Dad have printed these shirts to raise money for a great organization called Partners In Health. Having been in Haiti for over 20 years, PIH works to provide quality medical care services and help citizens learn how to live healthier lives.
Printing costs for the tees have been donated by Fretto Prints and Merchline is providing free shipping and handling so 100% of the proceeds go directly to PIH. Get yours here.

Gift giving is all about “the heart” right?

(They provided 21 surgeries in 2009)
The fine folks at Krochet Kids International launched their “Give The Gift Of Love” campaign this week.

The concept behind this latest poster from the crew at Right Brain Terrain, is encourage us to “seek out our potential beyond life’s entanglements”, just like you have to “SEEK” out the title among the scribbles.

Following the 8.7 earthquake that hit Indonesia in 2005, Pastor Agus and his wife Liana established Panti Asuhan, a children’s home providing food, shelter, and education to 30 kids from surrounding villages. In order to help fund the Panti, Agus and Liana are laying the groundwork for a sustainable gardening project that will feature a variety of tropical fruits, organic vegetables, and more.
In order to help get this project started, ROSA LOVES released the “Food For Panti” shirt today with all proceeds going to provide fruit trees, tools, and seeds for the project.
In 2007 ROSA LOVES created a shirt called “Indo Made” and with the proceeds purchased a fishing boat for and Indonesian fisherman, and father of two, so he wouldn’t have to give up a huge percentage of his income to rent one everday.
This new Tee “Eric’s Notes”, which was released today, celebrates the success story of “Indo Made” with its hand written graphics that tell the story of the fisherman’s reaction when he found out people were buying shirts to help him. Just like “Listner” which was released earlier this week, proceeds from “Eric’s Notes” will benefit the ROSA LOVES organization so they can have many more success stories in the future.
