That cotton t-shirt you have on consumed over 400 gallons of water before you bought it. See what's in an A Lot To Say tee.
Our Plan: Give Thanks By Giving Back
Submitted by Robin on Wed, 11/25/2009 - 14:58
When we started A Lot To Say, we had a plan.
Yes, we wanted to create apparel and accessories with inspiring, informative messaging and an equally great eco story. And yes, our hope was that in doing this, our planet would stay greener and our wardrobe might get a little cooler.
But, we also wanted to share our success with charities and organizations that believed in that plan as well. So below are just a few of the amazing charities we give back to.
The Green Energy Council
These guys rock. The National Green Energy Council (GEC) is one of the largest and most distinguished non-profit organizations committed to educating adults and children about the importance of energy efficiency, environmental awareness, global warming and the responsibilities that we bear in order to save our planet and our future.
We have the highest respect for what they do and love the support they give A Lot To Say in return. As GEC President and CEO, Ralph Avallone said:
Our program only gives endorsements to truly outstanding green technologies such as the A Lot To Say, Inc. apparel brand. They are making a difference by educating children and the public through their message and manufacturing process....This product absolutely stands head and shoulders above its competitors and previous technologies.
Global Green USA
Another phenomenal organization.
Founded in 1994, Global Green USA is the American arm of the Green Cross International (GCI). It was originally formed by Mikhail S. Gorbachev to foster a global shift toward a sustainable future and is the only green non-profit headquartered in Southern California, although they have offices throughout the US and across the globe.
Every day, they do their part as well as teaming up with celebrities such as Brad Pitt to create and implement projects not only for the greater good of this planet, but for all the people living on it who need a little extra help.
Stand Up To Cancer
This is one incredible organization that is making incredible strides.
We know from our own personal experience how cancer touches every person and every family at some point in our lives.
So together with Stand Up To Cancer, we created 11 exclusive messages on a line of tees and accessories. These messages are meant to educate every single person to the fact that Stand Up To Cancer is fighting cancer in a whole new way: eliminating beaurocracy, creating independent dream teams, funding the most brilliant scientists and investing in the most promising research.
We hope these tees give back hope, dreams and inspiration.
We hope that they empower each and every one of us to stand up and fight for those who have cancer as well as the loved ones who fight for their wellness everyday.
That’s why proceeds from the purchase of these items go directly to Stand Up To Cancer. If over 100,000 shirts are sold for this line, the amount donated to Stand Up To Cancer and their research doubles.
So stand up and help us give.
It’s all part of the greater plan.
