lobal Peace Exchange is a student founded and run non-profit begun at Florida State University. In 2008, GPE took a team
of 20 volunteers to Rwanda to help build an IT school and teach English. To help raise money for the school and the trip, we designed a t-shirt that would raise funds as well as awareness.
The shirts were sold along with buttons some 1" buttons we put together during a week long event GPE held on Landis Green at Florida State University. Change donations were taken and information distributed to students walking by. To help promote the event, we also designed two posters which were hung around campus.
Shirts were printed on black American Apparel t-shirts and sold for $20. Over 250 shirts were sold in the first 2 weeks raising over $4,000 in profits for GPE. GPE continues to use these shirts as a fundraiser and promotional tool for the organization.
