The handbag Ali is wearing is a collaboration between Louis Vuitton and Edun, the Africa-inspired clothing line of Bono and Ali. The profits of the handbag will be donated to TechnoServe, an institution that supports companies in developing countries, and to the Conservation Cotton Initiative, that stimulates sustainable agriculture in Africa.
