Journaling:
Bernie Saunders, US Senator from Vermont, made a hit at President Biden's inauguration. He wore handmade mittens & a puffy coat trying to stay warm in the cold of Washington DC.

Bernie's mittens were made by Jen Ellis, a Vermont elementary school teacher who has a side business making mittens out of recycled wool. His puffy jacket was made by Burton Snowboards.

The image of Bernie was used to make a variety of merchandise on Bernie's website, including T-shirts, sweatshirts & stickers. The first & second runs sold out quickly and have raised over $1.8 million for Vermont charities.

Jen Ellis made 3 more pair of mittens & donated them for fundraising auctions on eBay to support Passion 4 Paws Vermont, Outright Vermont, & her daughter’s college fund; over $10,000 was raised.

Sanders' attire has also sparked other charitable endeavors. An auction of a crocheted doll of Sanders raised $20,000 & Burton Snowboards donated 50 jackets to the Burlington Department for Children & Families in Sanders’ name, his office said.

      Great documentation of our current pop culture. Some of our own designers were going goofy photoshopping Bernie into all sorts of situations. Thank you so much for joining along!
