A shirt can just be a shirt, but as we know, it can also be a way to raise money, raise awareness and raise thought.

"Giving Knows No Boundaries" Haiti Relief T-shirt

The Giving Knows No Boundaries shirt is a simple design with a powerful message. The blue and green colors, taken directly from a map, should remind us that we all live on the same earth. And when our neighbor is in trouble, we should help.

This message also not only challenges us to give, but reminds us to give beyond our own backyard – maybe even beyond our own comfort level. And from what we’ve seen, a few dollars from a lot of people adds up to a tremendous amount.

For this shirt, we’ve chosen to donate to the American Red Cross. They have been providing volunteers, first aid and supplies such as drinking water, tents and tools. They are also comforting children and providing support to those who have suffered emotional trauma.

But although we’d love for you all to purchase one of OUR shirts, we just simply encourage you to give in any way, to any reputable charity, to help provide some sort of relief to our neighbors whose world has been turned upside down.

While bringing you opportunities to support state, national and international non-profits, we have learned that many of your efforts to raise money are locally focused. That’s where our new fundraisers come in!

We’ve developed a new fundraising program for groups that is especially helpful when hosting events, distributing materials throughout the community or meeting constituents in person. You can rally people to your cause by selling your own branded apparel and use the proceeds to benefit your group.

Our fundraising efforts operate much like our Exclusive Partnerships, except sales are handled primarily by the organization. We work with each group to provide free artwork - the design is donated at no cost to you.

We will also provide paper order forms for your event or to keep on hand, as well as post the fundraiser on our website. When the order forms are turned in and the money is collected, Greater Than Goods will produce the shirts. Again, at no upfront cost to the organization. You are only charged a wholesale cost when orders are turned in.

Are you looking to generate money for an important cause? We can help! Some inspiration for fundraisers include:

• Offsetting a friend or family member’s medical expenses
• Paying for new hospital equipment
• Restoring a historical site
• Building a new animal shelter

We hope that by adding yet another way to raise funds, we can help your group as much as possible! Contact me to chat more about Greater Than Goods and how we can help your organization!
