Special T-Shirts for Charity
Several entities are offering special t-shirts to raise money for various causes. Here's a look at some of the t-shirt campaigns:

Nordstrom is once again teaming with socially conscious fashion label EDUN to offer an exclusive limited edition t-shirt to benefit the ONE campaign. The t-shirts are 100 percent African and made in Lesotho, Africa. The t-shirts cost $40, of which $10 will be donated to the Apparel Lesotho Alliance for Africa (ALAFA). ALAFA provides antiretroviral drugs to factory workers and their family members in Lesotho. In addition, Nordstrom will donate $10 for every t-shirt sold in the U.S. up to $100,000.
As part of the campaign, celebrities such as Ben Affleck have been photographed in the t-shirts which they have personalized.
Lesotho's apparel industry is the major form of employment for this South African country, accounting for 40 percent of the jobs there. Lesotho has one of the highest AIDS rates in the world, with 29 percent of the population infected according to the ONE Campaign.
