The Greater Good

Fighting for the Greater Good is something that is very important to us. It’s what started Xena down the road to redemption... Why Han, Leia and Luke were fighting the Evil Empire... Why Mulder and Scully were searching for the truth... The Greater Good is worth fighting for. It’s helping those who can’t help themselves. It’s doing whatever you can to make the world a better place. And now TomboyTeez.com is joining the fight.

We are pleased to announce our Charity of the Month program. Starting in August, we’ll choose one charity to spotlight every month. During that entire month, a portion of the proceeds from every shirt sold on our website will be donated to that charity. It’s our way of giving back and hopefully inspiring others to do the same.

August 2011’s charity is Real Medicine Foundation. RMF provides humanitarian support to disaster and poverty stricken areas. They operate in over 15 countries on 4 different continents. What sets them apart from other disaster relief organizations is the idea of establishing a long-term solution.

“Real Medicine Foundation provides humanitarian support to people living in disaster and poverty stricken areas, and continues to help communities long after the world’s spotlight has faded. We believe that ‘real’ medicine is focused on the person as a whole by providing medical/physical, emotional, economic and social support. 

Real Medicine Foundation’s vision is to move beyond traditional humanitarian aid programs by creating long-term solutions to health care and poverty related issues, focusing on development and capacity building. By empowering people and providing them with the necessary resources, we pave the way for communities to become strong and self-sufficient.” — Real Medicine Foundation, 2010

Some of Real Medicine Foundation’s programs include Maternal Child Healthcare, Malnutrition Eradication, HIV/AIDS Care, Malaria Treatment and Prevention, and Microfinance and Livelihood projects. Their efforts are truly global, including initiatives in Japan, Haiti, India, Uganda and even here at home in the US. 

So start shopping at TomboyTeez.com and make a difference today. Help us save the world, one t-shirt at a time. Visit our website to learn more about our TomboyTeez Gives Backprograms, and for a look at this and the other charities we our supporting.
