Just in time for Christmas and New Year, and in the gifting spirit the year-end is always associated with, clothing giant Uniqlo has dropped the third line-up of its charity T-shirt project Peace For All
The collection features special graphics from collaborators who have a close connection to Uniqlo, like Peanuts and film director Wim Wenders.
And just like its earlier iterations, Uniqlo parent company Fast Retailing will donate 100 per cent of its profit from the sale of the T-shirts (equivalent to 20 per cent of the selling price) to three international aid organisations.
They are, UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, Save the Children, and Plan International, who provide assistance to people impacted by poverty, discrimination, violence and conflict.
Uniqlo first introduced the project in June with the concept that a T-shirt can help make the world a better place.
As of September, a total of more than 484,000 T-shirts have been sold, raising more than USD 1million (calculation period through Aug 31).
Until now, 20 collaborators who support the project's aim of "praying sincerely for world
peace and taking action" have volunteered their time and effort to create one-of-a-
kind, original design T-shirts.
The four new UTs are available for purchase in-store and online.
