United We Sand! - Fargo Moorhead Flood 2009

In March of 2009, the Fargo, ND and Moorhead, Minnesota experienced record flooding of the Red River. North Dakota also saw flooding at unprecedented levels statewide. During this crisis, communities came together as one, young and old, all working together to fill over 3 million sandbags in an attempt to save the city from widespread flooding. The one really unifying thing that I saw was that all of the people who had participated in a sandbagging line had this big residual sand spot on the front of their shirts, I thought it would be fun to have shirts made which reminded us of the Community in action! Included are a number of other products as well. Get yours here: http://www.cafepress.com/fargoflood09

30% of profits will be donated to the Impact Give Back - Red River Valley Flood Fight (a program of the Dakota Medical Foundation) which is matching the first $25,000 in donations. You can find out more and make a direct donation by visiting their site at: http://www.impactgiveback.org/general/index.aspx. The foundation is supporting three organizations which have stepped up in this time of need; The American Red Cross, Salvation Army, and FirstLink.

Again, Thank you to everyone for your support, thoughts, prayers, and hard work!
