buy a t-shirt, make a difference!


"Some people are just unlucky. We think it’s really important that these people be given better opportunities than they have... Musicians have a voice, and this is really useful- the people we want to help tend not to have much of a voice at all. The more musicians that get involved, the greater the voice we can give them... You can make a huge difference, just by supporting one of the charities on our site. The best way to do this is to pick up a T-shirt designed by an artist you like, order it, and wear it a lot. The charity will get 100% of the profit. You get a cool T-shirt, the artist gets to raise awareness for their favourite charity, you get to raise awareness for your favourite artist, and we feel the satisfaction of a job well done. Everybody wins. Now if that’s not lucky..."

Jag vill bara tipsa om The Yellow Bird Project. I stora drag handlar det om att utvalda artister designar en t-shirt där sedan 100% av vinsten går till välgörenhet. Artisten själv väljer vilken typ av välgörenhet deras bidrag ska gå till. Artister som medverkat är bland andra Devendra Banhart, Au Revoir Simone, Wolfmother och Rilo Kiley. Det bästa med t-shirtarna är att de är så sjukt snygga! Så gör en liten skillnad, köp en t-shirt!

Kanske något att tänka på när det är dags att köpa julklappar?
