Palindrome: Another Carrot Lover

What do the phrases "race car" and "Lisa Bonet ate no basil" have in common?

They are both palindromes. You know, words or sentences that are the same forwards and backwards? Like your friend Anna, whose name backwards is... Anna.

A friend of Yes To has started a tshirt company called pal•in•drōmeTM, and the unique spin is not the mirror-image phrases on the shirt themselves. It is that each purchase will generate a donation to a charity associated with the shirt you've bought.

So which pal•in•drōmeTM shirt will contribute a share of the purchase price to the The Yes To Seed Fund, a nonprofit organization that provides grants to schools and communities to help build gardens and promote access to healthy nutrition?



It's the "yo, banana boy" tshirt, and yes, that is a palindrome.

We're thrilled to be affiliated with a company that is so forward-thinking that they give back.
