We have some great Carlos Gilbert gear! Get your stuff at the online shop :)

The one of a kind tie-die tshirts were hand-dyed by a couple of awesome PTK volunteers and are available in a nice range of sizes.

There are terrific baseball caps and some wild color-changing cups. Chilly lately? Pick up a nice Blackhawks zipper sweatshirt!
Kindness matters. Every. Day. Everyone has a choice in seizing the moment to help someone. Offering a smile and active listening ears to cleaning up the garden, are just a few examples of simple acts of kindness that make a difference. Let's help make the world a better place.
