Good Vibes for Laura
For those who don’t know, the gPants print above was designed for gPants back in 2005. Everyone loved the print out of the gate, both the boy and the girl version, the colors, the gWords, the vibe they gave off. We aptly named them Good Vibes Boy and Good Vibes Girl. But none of us at g could have imagined just how powerful this print would become, and the impact it would have in the years to come.

gLove for Syrian refugees: Carry the Future
There’s a lot going on in our world. And it’s easy to feel like you don’t have a voice—that your actions don’t really matter. And yet, you do have a voice. And you can make a world of difference. It started with a conversation in our Facebook gMums group. We needed a place to vent our sense of helplessness and our fears about the world around us. Yet true to g spirit, our conversation quickly evolved into a plan of action—to connect with global moms and dads in a personal, meaningful way. One of the gMums suggested an agency that’s...
