OKC artist raising funds for Boston bombing victims through T-shirt sales


Ashley Griffith, an Oklahoma City artist, and a Red Cross volunteer during the OCK bombing in 1995 felt compelled to do something in response to the Boston bombings.  She created a design for a friend to wear at the OCK memorial when someone indicated she should create more for those who wanted to remember the Boston bombing victims.  So, she posted the design on her Facebook page and ordered 20 T-shirts.  She was soon overwhelmed with orders and turned to a local screen printer for help, who donated their services.  Together, they have printed 500 T-shirts.  $15 of the $20 for the T-shirts will be donated to the Limbs For Life organization to help all 13 victims who lost a limb in the bombings.

In case you thought enough T-shirts for the Boston bombing victims were already in circulation, this shows there is room to do good deeds and help those people injured by the tragedy.

Do good things.
