Maine Business Owner Designs Unique Threads for Public

Jessica Mckeage is the co-owner of Old Soul Collective in Waterville. Old Soul is a diverse shop that showcases vintage goods, clothing, and décor. It's also one of my favorite spots to visit when I am in Waterville.

According to Fox Bangor, Jessica has always possessed an eye for design and because of that creative artistry 4 years ago she started her own apparel brand "Retro Realm."

As Jessica watched her new venture grow she wanted to share her gratitude with those who truly embraced the brand.

"I really wanted to figure out a way to give back to the community and make a bigger impact than what it is I do here and what I have available here,"

Inspiration struck and lead her to come up with a unique plan which is to create apparel each month for a specific non-profit or charity.

It's not every day you come across something like this, and it's truly inspiring to see one person making such a significant impact in Maine.

Her new venture is called, Clothing For A Cause and has officially gone live online today. Check out the website here!

Jessica told FoxBangor,

"I really wanted the community to have a voice and what's important to them because the community's the most important way on making this successful. Having different organizations that are important to our community is important to me as well," 

Local shoppers are stoked and anticipate the upcoming releases from Jessica.

Jessica anticipates launching the project as early as March or April.
