The 21st Century Leaders Foundation will launch on October 28 the Whatever It Takes To Make A Difference Experience exhibition at the Grand Hyatt’s Al Maha lounge. Around 57 of the original artworks from 21st Century Leader Ambassadors including George Clooney, Samuel L Jackson, Sir Ben Kingsley, Giorgio Armani, Donna Karan, Sir Bob Geldof, Snoop Dog and Heidi Klum will be exhibited for the first time. Several 21st Century Leader Ambassadors will be in Doha from October 29 to 31 to support the event. Exclusive Whatever It Takes products will be sold at the hotel’s retail store beside Biscotti. Whatever It Takes is a cause-related product campaign which involves more than 600 celebrities or leaders in their field who have officially become 21st Century Leader Ambassadors. As ambassadors, they were tasked to create an original piece of art with a strong message of hope. Their artwork was designed into a variety of environmentally sustainable lifestyle products, created through ethical employment in developing countries. The products are then sold to raise funds through 4000 prestigious retail partners globally such as Harrods, Selfridges, Bloomingdales, Macy’s, Lane Crawford, David Jones and Harvey Nichols amongst others. These products will be available for the first time in Qatar through the Whatever It Takes to a Make A Difference Experience at the Grand Hyatt Doha later this week. The exhibit will run until October 31. http://thepeninsulaqatar.com/Display_news.asp?section=Local_News&subsection=Qatar+News&month=October2009&file=Local_News2009102501937.xml
