World Food Program (WFP), Presidential niece and model Lauren Bush has designed the FEED Bag - a stylish but sturdy tote bag made of brown sacking and white canvas. The proceeds from the $60 bag go to the WFP, which provided a staggering 16 million children worldwide with school meals in 2006 as part of their efforts to feed the 300 million children around the world that suffer chronic hunger. And Intuition (www.shopintuiton.com) has launched the Market Bag to help educate children in need...
