GUESS + Vanity Fair + IC = Epic party
Our favorite human in Hollywood, Kristen Bell, hosted a party for Invisible Children last night in Beverly Hills. Along with co-hosts Rachel Bilson and the amazing Pete Wentz, the trio launched a new line of Guess t-shirts that support Invisible Children. Vanity Fair magazine also co-hosted the party, and has become a great supporter of ours. We are so insanely honored by these people!
The shirts, made with Edun Organic Cotton grown and harvested in Uganda, were the brainchild of Caroline and Olivia Marciano. These girls, both daughters of Guess CEO Maurice Marciano, have become some of Invisible Children’s strongest activists, throwing events and spreading the word throughout Los Angeles. They are heroes of ours and we are so proud of all that they have done. As usual, it is the young people that surprise the world with their capacity to do big things that make a difference.
The t-shirts will be in every Guess store across the US starting Monday, and 100% of the sale price goes to Invisible Children. It is a huge commitment from Guess to Invisible Children, and we can’t thank them enough.
Not to mention, now Rachel is totally on board to go to Uganda. She has the fire in her eyes to do something big, and we love to see our supporters get that crazy look in their eye… where nothing seems impossible, not even getting Obama. When Kristen and Rachel invade northern Uganda it’s going to be an amazing trip… those girls will leave with thousands of new friends and a new understanding for the impact Invisible Children is having on the ground in Uganda. We know it happened with Pete when he and the rest of Fallout Boy went over. We will keep you posted on the trip if/when it finally happens.
I’ll post more pictures from the event last night as they come it.
You can find the t-shirt here on Guess’ site.
