We are a small group that has seen and heard the frustrations that non-profits go through to raise money and awareness. In many cases, the employees are overworked and underpaid. It's hard to think up creative ways to fundraise while you are over your head in other tasks that weren't originally in your job description.
We want to create an opportunity to fundraise without all of the work and overhead.
Why teeshirts? Simple becasue we wear them...a lot. They are under-rated tools of communication. We are also designers that wanted to do more with our creativity—something more than a client's wishes.
The idea of Benefitees came out of Three Circles Studio, a design studio in Portland, Maine that predominately works with artists and non-profits. The idea was to generate buzz for non-profits in a fun and interactive way.
