POCKET TEES WITH PURPOSE
Our Pay It Forward Cycle is exactly that – a cycle that ensures there’s a steady rotation of school supplies and uniforms being delivered to the kids who need them most.
Our Pocket T-shirts keep our Pay It Forward Cycle rolling forward by giving underprivileged kids the opportunity to take control of their future. They not only see the difference they can make in their own lives but also the lives of others too.
The current collection of pocket tees was designed by our kids in: Sri Lanka
BRIDGING THE GAP
Millions of children around the world miss out on school because they can’t afford basic supplies. In many developing countries, children are required to have uniforms and school materials to attend class. For families surviving on just a few dollars a day, these costs can make education nearly impossible.
HELPING KIDS TAKE CONTROL OF THEIR FUTURE
Affecting positive, sustainable change in another's life doesn't start with handouts. It starts with providing the resources and tools necessary for individuals to empower themselves.
This is why our Pay It Forward Cycle is so important – it’s sole purpose is to encourage children to play an active part in helping themselves and others. And because they also benefit from the initiative and creativity of the kids before them, they're able to experience the impact of their actions firsthand.
Our hope is that through our cycle, we inspire kids to take control of their own futures and instill in them a big-picture mindset that serves the world. By combining action with positive intent, we can drive change in a way that is both meaningful and lasting.
