Hello everyone,
Hopefully by now you have noticed that CTC has gotten a makeover. We have changed our look and are so excited to share these changes with all of you. Please be sure to visit our new website. We are just working out some finally things on the site but are really pleased with the way that it is turning out. http://www.ctcinternational.org
Some other great news is that Zane Wilemon(Founder/Executive Director) is in Washington D.C. right now preparing for the annual D.C. Summit Series. DC10 is an invitation-only event that connects top young minds and inspires a new generation of leaders to succeed in business and in life.
With over 700 guests and panels including President Bill Clinton, Blake Mycoskie(TOMS shoes), and John Legend we were more than excited to be invited to attend. However, we were ESTATIC to be asked to be the offical bag of the event. That is right over 700 of the L.I.F.E. bags made by our Maliaka Mums will be sported around all weekend at this event by attendees.
When we learned of this we immediately called up our friends at Veritas Fashion and the H.O.P.E. campaign and asked that their artist collectives create designs for these 700 bags. We were so happy to get such amazing designs and to be able to include our community of like minded people who want to use their art to give back.
We are wishing the best of luck to Zane on his trip to D.C. and are so proud of everyone that came together to make this work out.
Special props to the women that make these bags and have found a sense of empowerment with a skill that is quite literally being used on the other side of the world.
Thanks to all of you that have made this possible from our screen printers at Under Pressure(Austin),to the artists, to our FABULOUS intern Cali Huffman for her graphic work on our new L.I.F.E. Bag tags.

so insane...can't wait to see the results!
this is so interesting, we are all looking forward to get the results. Zane, we wish you all the best as you represent CTC in this event.
Yes! Represent! This is great news. I can't believe former president Bill Clinton will more than likely be sporting a L.I.F.E. Bag. That's nuts. Keep it up!
