Chari-T Design Contest

4/19/2011

Yes! I knew it! Design and doing good CAN be combined and here's proof:

<-- This is Ella Marciano. You might already know who she is, because she's the daughter of GUESS CEO Paul Marciano, a model AND she designed this t-shirt for GUESS. The profits go to Sojourn Services for Battered Women and Their Children.

GUESS and Ella have teamed up with Teen Vogue for a t-shirt contest. No, not that kind of contest (which, of course and by the way, I would so not be promoting here as a Real World F. G. thing). This is a DESIGN contest and YOU can enter it. (You need to have some artistic talent though, but I leave that judgement up to you.)

Here's where the f.g. part comes in: the profits from this t-shirt will benefit the charity YOU choose.

So, if you're interested, sign up and enter here:

Next year, maybe they'll make it a BOOT design contest...

Real World F.G.s

There are people in the world who try to do good and grant wishes -- without using a wand and without there being anything in it for themselves! Amazing.

Because I'm in awe of these non-f.g. f.g.s, I figured I'd post about them here. If you know any, let me know and I'll add them to the list.

The Fairy Godmother Project: No, it's not the name of one of my term papers. It's a bunch of organizations around the country that help out kids who want to go to the prom but can't afford all the stuff that goes with it. Here are links to the ones I've found so far:

Keri's Fairy Godmother Foundation - Austin
Kenzie's Closet - Cincinnati
The Fairy GodMother Project of Massachusetts
North Shore Fairy Godmother Project - North Shore, MA
The Fairy Godmother Project of Music City - Nashville
Princess Project - San Jose
