Want to save a tree by wearing a tee? Giveaway number eight from Rain Tees will make your dream come true. One lovely reader will receive their choice of Rain Tee for their child. There are four beautiful designs – each with a lovely message attached. You can choose from:

House on the Hill
Designed by Dioner Pablo Cerdo Andi of Tena, Ecuador – says his inspiration comes from his love of living in the Amazon because the air is alive.

Hummingbird
Designed by Luiz Alvarajo of Ecuador – Luiz’s inspiration was that hummingbirds use so much energy beating their wings and must consume several times their body weight in nectar each day to survive.

Rainbow Beak Tee
Designed by Ava of Costa Rica – her inspiration is her deep love for living in a tropical ecosystem.

Monkey Bridge Tee
Illustrated by Winnie McCarthy of Costa Rica. Winnie illustrated one of the “bridges” designed and constructed by children in Costa Rica who are involved in Kids Saving the Rain Forest.

For every Rain Tee sold, a child in Costa Rica’s most threatened tropical rain forest receives a tree to plant in their rain forest through Kids Saving the Rain Forest. Fantastic!

They also have a fabulous selection of Rain Tees for Adults, I love mine! And a tree is planted too!
