Newark Director of Police, Samuel A. DeMaio and Jessica Mindich of Jewelry for a Cause

NY – When New York jewelry designer Jessica Mindich first told us about her new line The Caliber Collection, we were immediately intrigued.  It’s an inspired idea: acquire reclaimed guns and bullet casings taken off the streets of Newark, New Jersey and use those materials to make a product that would turn something destructive into a symbol of renewal. Ingeniously, the proceeds would generate funds to further support the expansion of gun buy-back and amnesty programs in Newark and other cities across the nation.   And, this was all before the devastating and tragic events in Newtown, Connecticut last week.

Storm Support Tees

NY – If you’re still trying to find ways to support the victims of Sandy, have we got a great a suggestion and it’s just in time for the holidays. Storm Support was the brainchild of graphic designer Walter Shock, who along with friends and colleagues Jesse Resnick and Anshay Bhatia, created an e-commerce site that showcases a line of t-shirts and tote bags that sport original artwork inspired by the aftermath of Sandy. They wanted to do something to make a difference so they used their talents to create something.

Now you can do something to make a difference by making a purchase and of course the best part is that 100% of the profits go to aiding those affected by the powerful hurricane.  We love the cool designs and classic simplicity that promises to make any merchandise from Storm Support not only an ideal gift but quite possibly a collector’s item.
