Get shirty at poverty!

Launch to coincide with Anti-Poverty Week, Fairtrade Licensee Rise Up is aiming to sell 1000 business shirts to help alleviate global poverty and reduce our carbon footprint.  Rise Up’s beautifully tailored business shirts are 100% Fairtrade Certified Organic cotton, carbon neutral and made in Australia by workers who are part of the No Sweatshop network. On top of this, $10 from every sale will go to either Oxfam or Life Changing Experiences to further their work in developing countries.
 
Buying a shirt is the beginning of the journey, which will take you week by week from the cotton farm in India through to delivery to your door.  Along the way you will meet the people who are making your shirt and see how your purchase is changing their lives. Through weekly updates, you will meet workers and suppliers via blogs, newsletters and video interviews. You will see in real time how your choice changes lives.
