FEED Clarins

Lauren Bush has launched another item in her line of FEED Projects handbags.

The Clarins FEED 15 pouch will provide 15 meals to school children for each pouch sold. Inside are three popular Clarins beauty products.

“World hunger kills more people then HIV, AIDS, and Malaria combined. It’s a silent killer,” Bush said. “I would just encourage everyone to get involved and take that first step in either learning, or educating your friends about world hunger, or making a donation.
