After a conversation with Colin Firth regarding his involvement with Oxfam and Ucodep, I attended a dinner in Villa Medici in Rome; Colin had invited an impressive group of Italian cinema’s most illustrious actors, actresses and directors. At the dinner Colin’s words inspired me to make a personal effort….I had always believed I could do little on my own.Through Colin’s words, enthusiasm and reality I realized that together, each one of us making a small effort collectively makes a difference.
Oxfam International is one of the largest non-governmental organizations in the world, working in over 100 countries to fight poverty and injustice. Ucodep is a non-governmental Italian organization that for over 30 years has supported and initiated development projects from 20 under-developed countries, in the southern hemisphere to promote awareness and support in Italy.
The Oxfam / Ucodep slogan “ WE CAN CHANGE LIVES” underlines this belief.
My personal effort to make a difference took the form of designing and making two LIMITED EDITION T-SHIRTS and donating these to Oxfam.
They are 45 Euros each and available exclusively through http://www.thecorner.com/
FOR HIM….One size, loose with short sleeves
FOR HER…One size, long in length and sleeveless
I ask you to join us in making a contribution to this just cause. Through buying a t.shirt this small contribution can make a big difference… TOGETHER.”WE CAN CHANGE LIVES”
P.s. BUY A T-SHIRT! and hey… it’s a Limited Edition, a great price and with greater consequences for a greater good!
