The Designers wanted to help women and children affected by the conflict in Darfur
Vena Cava Designs T-shirt to benefit ARC - 2/7/07
Vena Cava designers Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai have designed and are selling a limited edition t-shirt (pictured above) to benefit ARC's work for people in Darfur. The t-shirts are for sale at ShopBop.com
The t-shirt sales are part of the exclusive New York Fashion Week fundraising program "Fashion Gives Back", which is sponsored by Glamour Magazine, shopbop.com and Splendid.
"Fashion Gives Back" chose six young female designers to design limited edition t-shirts. And they asked the designers to select a charity to support with the sales from the t-shirt they designed. Mayock and Buhai chose to support ARC's work in Darfur. 30% of each sale will go to ARC.
The t-shirts are available exclusively at ShopBop.com.
