Blogamole › Fundacion Mi Sangre

When it comes to promoting la paz, no hay ningún artista como Juanes.  He definitely personifies peace in the music industry.  The fact that he was just awarded el Premio Nacional de la Paz en Colombia este fin de semana is just the cherry on top, as far as we're concerned.

El cantante was honored due to his involvement with his organization Fundación Mi Sangre, as well as his continued support for victims of war and minefields, and, of course, his Paz Sin Fronteras concert series, which has taken place in the disputed border between Colombia y Venezuela, and most recently, en Cuba.

There are some people that just make el mundo a better place, and Juanes is one of them. Now you can help spread his positive message of peace by buying one of his new 80's-inspired t-shirts. Each shirt features colorful graphics and a message about our universal "derecho a vivir en paz." Profits from the tees are going towards Juanes' Fundación Mi Sangre, which aids children and survivors of land mine explosions. *Sigh* Political activist and mega-hot rocker rolled into one? How can you not love Juanes!

Sadly, las camisetas are currently only being sold at Éxito stores in Colombia. No fair, we want one! If you've got any familia en Colombia, NOW would be the time to hit them up for some regalitos.  Maybe get an extra one to share with Blogamole?  Worth a shot, verdad? [MTV Tr3s Radio Noticias]
