Exciting Happenings for 1>0!

On Saturday, August 18th, the 1>0 girls were at the Max and Gino's Woodbury and Merrick locations. With the help of Z100, they were able to spread their message and introduce their clothing line. The Max and Gino's customers loved the clothing and were very supportive of the cause. A special thank you to the store managers, Lori and Maggie, for helping to make the event a success and to Kerry Gillick-Goldberg for organizing the trunk show. The clothing can be found at the Max and Gino's locations in early October.

The launch of the ONE IS GREATER THAN NONE charity line was incredible at the FAME Show, at the Jacob Javits Center, and on August 28th-30th the clothing line will be featured at PROJECT Las Vegas!

TeenVOGUE has decided to feature the girls and the clothing line in their Dec/Jan 2008 issue that will hit the stands late November/early December. This will give 1>0 another opportunity to gain even more support for their charity. The girls' goal of sponsoring a rescue mission is becoming a reality! More and more people are becoming "Part of the Equation".
