Welcome to my blog!

Hi there! I'm Irish Ingrid, The Wise King owner. I am a full time sociology major, political science minor student who owns and runs an online custom design tshirt shop. http://www.thewiseking.com I also write for Helium.com, blog, volunteer, and donate 10% of all my profit to whatever charity is currently in need. It seems we won't be running out of those anytime soon, unfortunately.

Tuesday in Fashion, Volunteering and Current Events

Good Day Everyone! Please be sure to check out the Create and Donate group on my Facebook.
As you all know, the philosophy at The Wise King is to generate messages, promote individual creativity, volunteer and donate to further worthy causes using tshirts and hoodies. Though we are open minded to the global social village, there is a line! It seems other online tshirt shops have had the misfortune of someone designing Hate Messages on tshirts around the world. See the link below:

Also in the news today, apparently people are tired of merchants charity drives. Believe it or not, I couldn't agree more. It seems everywhere we go, not only does someone want something from you, but they want more on top of it! I think I speak for most people when I say: keep things simple, especially if you want people to be generous!

Finally, the devastation in Chile continues. Looting, tremors and waves further the rescue mission.
