Looks like fun. What a great cause!
Last night I was so honoured to be apart of ‘Tees for School’ - Children in Pakistan who live in an area with no school were given the opportunity to paint shirts, and these hand made shirts are being sold to help build a school for these children. Each shirt comes with a photograph of the child who painted it which makes supporting the cause even more rewarding!
Huge thank you to Lana Selbee from Eleven:Eleven Boutique in Calgary who hosted last nights event, Aleem Arif for putting it all together, and Becky Kung for being the online support (check out her blog ‘Velvet & Vino’)
And of course a huge thank you to everyone who came out last night to support these kids! …If you didnt get a chance to come out last night you can still purchase these shirts at Eleven:Eleven Boutique in Calgary! So show some love and help give these kids something to dream about <3
Those are pretty awesome. We need some done of Calgary!
