Warner Robins boutique fundraiser supporting school after shooting

Livi Kate Boutique has made more than 800 shirts and will donate $10 from each $15 sale to Warner Robins High School.

WARNER ROBINS, Georgia (41NBC/WMGT) – A Warner Robins boutique is giving back to the Warner Robins High School community following last week’s shooting.

Britni Sauls, owner of Livi Kate Boutique, was hesitant to make shirts after the shooting because she didn’t want to profit from a tragedy. But after a school staff member reached out, she found a way to give back.

The boutique is selling shirts for $15, with $10 from each shirt going directly to the school to support students and staff.

“I was like, ‘If we charge more can we donate all the money to the school? Will you do something for the staff and students in wake of what happened?'” Sauls said. “And she told us absolutely, and that is what started it.”

Sauls says more than 800 shirts have been made. As a former teacher, she says the shooting hit close to home.

Jennifer Little, who helps at the boutique, says it’s been amazing to see the community come together.

“It’s amazing to see what my sister is doing with her store and being a part of this community, supporting a local business, supporting a local high school,” she said.

Little’s son graduated from Warner Robins High School last year, making the effort personal for her as well.

The boutique plans to donate the money raised to the school Friday. So far, the fundraiser has raised $6,000.
