London
(ANI):
Scottish
singer
Annie
Lennox
has
launched
a
celebrity
charity
store
in
London.
The
55-year-old
artist
has
inked
a
deal
with
Oxfam
to
open
the
shop
in
the
famous
departmental
store
Selfridges.
The
shop
will
have
clothes
and
several
other
items
that
are
donated
by
celebrities,
reports
the
Daily
Star.
The
earnings
will
be
used
to
fund
the
women
projects
of
Oxfam
in
countries
such
as
Bangladesh,
India
and
Sri
Lanka.
"More
than
two
thirds
of
the
world's
poorest
people
are
women,
yet
they
struggle
to
be
heard.
We
saw
an
opportunity
to
bring
together
influential
women
with
valuable
skills
and
contacts
to
try
and
make
a
difference
to
their
lives," says
Jane
Shepherdson,
boss
of
fashion
brand
Whistles,
who
is
helping
launch
the
project.
