Children’s Wear Line with Charitable Focus Celebrates Grand Opening

A set of parents with a bug for design and a passion for giving launch boys t-shirt line, Colin Maguire which benefits the Children’s Inn at NIH.

Jacksonville, FL (PRWEB) October 5, 2006

Colin Maguire is not just a t-shirt company. While the tees are soft, stylish, and perfect for rugged toddlers, the roots of the company run deeper than style. In partnership with the Inn at the National Institutes of Health which provides the latest treatment options for seriously ill children, a little t-shirt line named after a toddler is uniting children around the world.

Created by Carrie and Matt Eckert, Colin Maguire at http://www.colinmaguire.com is a growing toddler fashion line that carries t-shirts designed for little kids by big kids. Who are these big kids? They are residents of the Children’s Inn at NIH. From a lion design with the saying “I’m the mane event”, to a bright yellow helicopter that is “just hanging around”, the layered soft tees are the result of a monthly contest held at the Children’s Inn at NIH where a winner is chosen for their artistic ability. After their design is chosen they receive their bio on the Colin Maguire tag of the shirt they designed. Artists who are chosen receive a $100 honorarium and Colin Maguire donates generous proceeds of each sale to financially support the Children’s Inn at NIH.

Lifting spirits up, Colin Maguire owners Carrie and Matt Eckert have already received interest from many media outlets, and are excited each month to pick a winner and share the new design with the media and their wholesale accounts at retailers around the globe. Carrie left her pharmaceutical sales career after the birth of her son several years ago and Matt has been working in medical sales ever since completing his military duty in 2001. Their shared interest in medicine was the inspiration for this toddler clothing line. Not only is the rugged construction of the tee shirts original and fun, but the designs are all one-of-a-kind complete with a unique story!

Colin Maguire shirts are 100% super-soft cotton with contrast stitching and distressed hemlines. They are currently available in sizes 18m, 24m, 2T, 3T, 4T and 5T. Long-sleeve “layered” tees are available for fall and many short-sleeve styles are on the way. In addition to the boy’s line, Lil Miss Maguire will debut on the website with new designs especially for girls in early 2007. The Colin Maguire web shop is full service and open for business. Long Sleeve layered tees, short sleeve, and gift certificates are available. Visitors may also view the art gallery featuring drawings from the child artists who create these amazing tees.
