NEW. Just in time for Christmas. Shepard Fairey t-shirts

Saturday, December 19th, 2009

Black American Apparel L.E.A.D Uganda T-shirt with Shepard Fairey’s Blanket image on it.

This t-shirt is the same used by Obey Clothing. The image is put on using an environmentally friendly, Discharge Printing process. Discharge printing embeds the inks into the shirt. It is water-based, as opposed to silk screening, which uses plastisol inks. Art Press, who printed the shirts uses all soy-based chemicals.

The shirt is soft because the inks are embedded into the shirt (as opposed to being on top of it). Each garment is unique. Colors may vary slightly due to the dyes in the shirt.

Buy them at our on-line store. http://www.leaduganda.org/shop/clothes/tshirts/lead-tshirt-men.html?options=cart

Greetings!

Just a reminder that there are only a few days left to ask, remind, and inspire everyone you know to begin all of their holiday shopping on GoodShop and raise money on behalf of L.E.A.D Uganda! (http://www.goodsearch.com)

GoodSearch is a search engine powered by Yahoo! that donates 1 cent to your designated charity for every time you search the web. Just visit GoodSearch, designate LEAD Uganda (brooklyn) as the “charity you GoodSearch for” and thats it! You can even add it to the upper right hand corner of your Firefox browser simply by clicking on the Firefox Pluggin. This is an easy way to support our efforts to educate Uganda’s young leaders.

Also, don’t forget, the easiest way to ensure that your purchases generate a free donation is to add their new toolbar to your browser. Just send an email to information@goodsearch.com and they will build it for you ASAP! Easy and very, very helpful.
