Culture Klash

Anyone know what klash are? They're hand-made Iraqi shoes. And when you buy them, you're helping to fund heart surgeries for Iraqi kids. Been looking for a way to make a difference in Iraq? This looks like it might be it.

Renown for their durability and detail, these shoes now save lives as we give all our proceeds to fund heart surgeries for Iraqi children dying from lack of health care. But we’re more than fashion. We are human rights activists, mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters. And whether you’re in it first for the shoes or first for the kids, we guarantee satisfaction.

And check out their Preemptive Love Manifesto:

We will not embrace the hate handed down to us. We will not retaliate. We will not repay evil with evil. We will use business - yes, even fashion - we will beg; we will teach; we will make film and sing our songs; but whatever we do we will do with love, because “…love never fails.” Trade and aid; commerce and charity. To give ourselves away. We choose Preemptive Love.

So swing by Buy Shoes Save Lives and, well, you get the point. (h/t David)

What can I tell you, Beth? I'm an enigma wrapped in a riddle.
