Beginning January 14, $5.00 from every HOMAGE T-shirt purchased online will be donated to Doctors Without Borders to assist earthquake victims in Haiti.
With poverty, comes vulnerability. Haiti is considered the poorest country in the western hemisphere with nearly 80% of its population living on less than $2.00 per day.
Providing independent, impartial assistance to those most in need, Doctors Without Borders is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971.
Currently, 800 Doctors Without Borders staff members are on the ground in Haiti, with more help expected to arrive shortly, including the installation of an inflatable hospital with operating capabilities.
We must mobilize now to help victims of the devastating 7.0-magnitude earthquake that struck the country on Tuesday, January 12. With hundreds of thousands of people in desperate need, our response to this devastating tragedy must not be guided by political ideology, but, instead, an unwavering regard for the value of human life.
Congrats to Wes Flexner and Robert Duffy on hitting the 7 year mark. Lots of hard work and dedication–have to appreciate the hustle. Details on the show can be found here.
I want to apologize for any ordering delays that may have arisen during the holiday season. We’re growing. These things aren’t easy, and, sometimes, there isn’t a secret formula to follow that provides all of the answers. We’re constantly striving to be better by offering our customers (you) something that just hits the spot. In order to do this, however, there are going to be a few bumps in the road. Rest assured that if we don’t get it right the first time, let us know and we promise to make things right. We sincerely thank you for your understanding.
On a more positive note, I want to thank everyone for their support in 2009. It certainly means a lot. Though things might seem different, we are a small, but dedicated team of people working behind the scenes to bring all of the facets of HOMAGE to life–design, production, sales, marketing, billing, quality control, customer service and more. This can sometimes be a lot for just a few people. But your support allows us to continue doing what we love so much!
There are going to be some amazing things happening in 2010. Stay tuned…

One of my favorite places in the whole wide world is Katzinger’s Deli. In October, Diane and friends celebrated 25 incredible years. Here’s a short video that captures the spirit of the celebration!
Another funky gem from Chromeo, the only successful Arab/Jew partnership since the dawn of human culture. If hearing this doesn’t make you want to stop what you’re doing and immediately start to groove, there could be something wrong…
