Special kids' tees you'll fall in love with for so many reasons
Funky t-shirts are my kids' uniform. Since my boys share clothing, I need a material that can stand up to my kids' rugged routines. Oh, and eco-friendly threads are always welcome. Now imagine all this, complete with cool designs created by artists with special needs to support great causes.

Yeah, I'm excited too. I am in love with Paper Clouds Apparel. The sweet guitar you see here was designed by an artist with special needs. For every purchase of a bamboo or cotton blend t-shirt printed with organic paints, 50% of all proceeds go directly to a rotating charity--currently the International Down Syndrome Coalition.

What's more, Paper Clouds Apparel even employs special needs adults to package and ship out the orders. This is clearly a company with a huge heart.

Take a look at the site, order a t-shirt for yourself and one for your kids. And then do me a big favor? Spread the word. -Eva

The boys' t-shirt pictured above (completely suitable for girls, too!) is available at Paper Clouds Apparel with proceeds supporting the International Down Syndrome Coalition through 2/3/13. But don't wait. The designs will change soon and so will the cause.
