This is one of the last series of 'what our PR Interns are wearing' for the 2013 season, featuring our 'Purple Orchids' scarf, specifically designed for the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA). Working in more than 120 countries, ADRA provides aid to disaster relief, community farming,water resources, food aid in mother-child health programs and women education and training.
