Recently I was asked to design a t-shirt for Farofa Nation, a t-shirt company with a mission: to help the street kids of Brazil and lead them to a better life. I was happy to be a part of this collective who are simply good people with good hearts. (Read more about their mission here.)
The above is the t-shirt I designed for them and we are giving it away here at DA. It's a woman's tee (Boys, if you're interested, we don't discriminate.) printed on American Apparel, slightly sheer, sporty racerback.
Interested? All you have to do is leave a comment below and you are in the running. Comments will stay open until Thursday (the 28th @ 5pm EST) and then we'll randomly pull a name. Good luck.
We have our winner. Congratulations to Anika and thanks again to Farofa Nation for the great giveaway.

The swirls remind me of hair, balls of yarn, or the grooves on a seashell. It's pretty cool.

Geesh, not only is it a fan-freaking-tastic shirt, but the cause? It might just make this whole shirt thing a whole bunch better. (:
(@) / 01/28/2010 @ 9:24am /
this tshirt really appeals. it's innovative and fashionable. if it leaps off the person like it leaps off the page, i think it will be an endless conversation starter and a friend for years. kudos on this design. i luv it.
