Not a single penny of profit will be made, with about $15 per shirt going to the American Red Cross.

U really trust the red cross?

u know they diverted 50% of the funds for 9/11 victims to "other things".

u know when u donate blood? they give you a cookie? and in a bitch move, they sell the ur blood to the hospital for $10,000.

and the doctor sell the blood to those in need for $50,000 - $100,000.

i mean, stop donating blood. and maybe when the supply is low, red cross will share there profits with you 50%. and you'll get $5,000 instead of a cookie and juice.

No, honestly, I don't trust the Red Cross all that much. I personally prefer Doctors Without Borders and the Salvation Army, but this is a nice alternative to get _some_ money into the reigon from people who would normally not give.

After making shirts with a friend for a living, $15 per shirt would generate profit considering you can make them for about $3-7 each cost. Sounds like a retail cost for a donation. I already made a donation via the red cross but what is up with NO when help is arriving?
