Donations: Partnership for Civil Justice and Coffee Kids

December 31st, 2012 | Posted by Jim Cook in Economy | Outside the USA | Shirts

Each time we sell a made-in-the-USA liberal political t-shirt at Skreened, we set aside one dollar to donate to a liberal political cause and another dollar to better the economic condition of poor people outside the United States.

This month, our domestic political donation goes to The Partnership for Civil Justice in recognition of its good work in using Freedom of Information Act requests to uncover the fact that the U.S. government has been using its “anti-terrorism” powers to squelch legal, nonviolent protests against the abuses of Wall Street financiers.

This month’s donation to help poor people outside the United States goes to Coffee Kids, an organization that helps coffee-farming communities in Latin America that are paid so little for their work by big-time coffee corporations. Coffee Kids invests in health-care, education and gardening projects to improve the lives of coffee farmers and their families.

If you have a few extra dollars, please consider helping these good groups continue their good work.
