Charity work is a noble way for artists to gain recognition for their work while raising funds for a worthy cause. The brightly colored and whimsical tees and tote bags from Part Of It support a wide range of causes, from saving polar bears to combating dyslexia, depending on the artist who created the piece.
Part Of It inspires and invites artists to create and sell work to benefit a cause of their choosing; usually charities ask for donated work to support their fundraising efforts. Founded by artists Christopher Sleboda and Kathleen Burns, Part Of It's tees and totes take social entrepreneurialism to a new level, a small and personal one, proving that you don't have to be a big celebrity, or settle for mass-produced and branded charity items, to make a difference.
