2021 Community Shirt Year in Review (Shirt Fundraiser for Nonprofits)

by Molly Joyce

Community is everything!

As 2021 is coming to an end, we are looking back at some of our favorite things to happen this year. Our Community Shirts are something we're proud of and we're thankful for your support.

This year, we teamed up with six different local non-profits and raised a total of $4,750 to give back and we couldn't have done it without your help!
