Bow Tie Cause Village Life Bowtie

Get your "Village Life Bow Tie" to wear at Night on the Serengeti from our partners at              Bow Tie Cause, powered by NFL linebacker and world traveler, Dhani Jones. The Village Life Bow Tie is available for purchase on this site, Cost $57, and also through Village Life's website, www.villagelifeoutreach.org. Proceeds from the sales go to support the Roche Health Center's weekly clinic operations. For more information on Dhani Jones' Bow Tie Cause please visit: bowtiecause.org.

The Story behind the Village Life Outreach Bow Tie Design: Based on the shape of the ISSB bricks used to build the Roche Health Center, this interlocking pattern represents the interconnectedness and stability of the Village Life Outreach Project organization. In addition, the shape of the bricks is united with three segments- similar to the three Village life committees: Life, Health, and Education.
