LA Style: Help Lonesome George By Shopping!

April 15th, 2008 Written by: Kendra· 1 Comment

lonesomegeorgeKP Lonesome George (to the right) is the very last Pinta Tortoise in the world.  He’s lonely.  Kind-of like Will Smith in I Am Legend, only George doesn’t even have a German Shepherd.  To help George, shop at your local Buffalo Exchange this Saturday.  The proceeds will bring George’s closest relatives, the Espanola tortoises, to live with George on Pinta Island in the Galapagos Islands.  It’ll be a tortoise party.  And you can help make it happen and get some cool threads while you’re at it!

Saturday, Buffalo Exchange will have a ton of sale items for $1 each, the proceeds of which will benefit good old George.  Go get some hip used clothing for less than an In & Out burger.  You’ll feel good about yourself and George will be a happy tortoise.
