Beyonce wearing Samburu Project "Hope" Tee

We love tee shirts by LA based Public Library. Their Samburu project line benefits the Samburu people of Northern Kenya, with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the shirt helping to drill wells that bring water and life to those in need. A s seen in People Style watch April '09 is Beyonce wearing the "Hope" Tee which we now have at Hand In Pocket. The linen colored t-shirt features the words "Life, Water, Samburu and Hope" in the outline of the continent of Africa. It has rolled capped sleeves, a scooped bottom hem and wide off the shoulder neckline. The tee is meant to be worn loosely and would look great with boyfriend jeans or shorts. Available in small, medium or large, Samburu Project Hope Tee $40.00.

Jessica Alba and The Samburu Project

We just received a new shipment from Public Library a graphic tee line that we just started carrying at HIP. Not only are all of these tees cute and trendy they help raise money for The Samburu Project, which benefits the Samburu people of Northern Kenya.

One of the Samburu people’s biggest issues is lack of clean water. You can help solve this problem when you purchase a Public Library tee because a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the shirt will help drill a well that brings water & life to those in need.
This line also has a huge celebrity following including: Beyonce, Kristen Bell, Jessica Stroup, Stacy Keibler, Audrina Patridge, AnnaLynne McCord and Jessica Alba who you can check out above in the silver “We R One” tee ($25.00).
