CURRENT PROJECTS AND OTHER NONPROFITS WE ARE HELPING
For every t-shirt you buy, we give a school uniform to an orphan or vulnerable child in a developing nation. Each t-shirt design is an interpretation of a social issue and helps build awareness for a nonprofit we select that is addressing that cause (listed below). After the cost of the school uniform, the remaining proceeds from each sale are donated to the selected nonprofit for that design.
We are currently working on providing school uniforms to orphans and vulnerable children in South Africa and India:
SCHOOL UNIFORMS PROJECT IN SOUTH AFRICA:
We have partnered with CESLA to give AIDS orphans and vulnerable children much needed school uniforms in KwaZulu-Natal. In KwaZulu-Natal alone, there are estimated to be between 500,000 to one-million orphans and vulnerable children. If you are interested in applying to join us on a special school uniforms delivery trip for Africa in November, '08 please email us at info[at] commonthreadz.org
SCHOOL UNIFORMS PROJECT IN INDIA
We have partnered with The Miracle Foundation to provide orphans and vulnerable children in India with school uniforms. If you are interested in applying to join us on a special school uniforms delivery trip for India in January, '09 please email us at info[at] commonthreadz.org

About me: CommonThreadz is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that is working to provide vulnerable children in developing nations with school uniforms that they otherwise could not afford. We raise awareness and funds for CommonThreadz and other nonprofits through our own line of socially-conscious apparel. For every t-shirt you buy, we give a school uniform to a orphan or vulnerable child. Once the cost of the uniform is covered, we donate the remaining proceeds to the organization that the shirt is based on. We need your support!
