Holt Renfrew and Marc by Marc Jacobs have teamed up to create a Canada-exclusive, limited edition tote, to raise $80,000 for the designer’s charity of choice Vision Spring.
Vision Spring is a non-profit organization providing low cost eye glasses in developing worlds. “We are thrilled to partner with premier companies Holt Renfrew and Marc by Marc Jacobs,” said Vision Spring founder Dr. Jordan Kassalow.
“A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this unique tote bag will enable Vision Spring to provide the gift of site and economic self reliance to thousands of people in the developing world.”
Designed specifically for Holt Renfrew, the $48 Marc by Marc Jacobs Tote is both fashionable and functional. Made with nylon, it features a notable graphic–the words Marc by Marc Jacob in an eye chart in tribute to Vision Spring. Marc by Marc Jacobes totes for Holts will be available in 4 different colors–blue, pink, white and black.
The limited edition totes, will arrive in stores across Canada September 30, 2010 and will be available until October 10, 2010, while quantities last.
Holt Renfrew is also giving their site visitors a chance to reserve a tote online which began September 7, 2010.
