Girls Just Wanna Win Swag: Tees For Change

The winner of last week’s Boojiboo giveaway is Kristy.

I’d like to introduce you to Andreea and her company Tees for Change this week.

Tees for Change offers eco-friendly t-shirts for the whole family adorned with positive messages such as CHOOSE HAPPINESS, TODAY MATTERS, LAUGH OFTEN and PRACTICE KINDNESS.

Andreea’s idea for Tees For Change was sparked when she was expecting. “I started Tees For Change when I was pregnant with my son, and decided to have a home birth with a midwife. I received a lot of negative comments and responses full of fear, so I decided to make a shirt for myself that said Be Courageous. This is how Tees For Change was born.”

“I knew that I had a great idea, and I had a lot of experience in marketing and eco-friendly products. I was also really interested in making my business as “green” as possible, so all the materials used in the t-shirts are eco-friendly and sustainable. I wanted to make a difference with my business, so we’ve partnered with Trees For The Future to plant a tree for every shirt we sell.”

That eco-friendly philosophy and their high quality tees are what make Tees For Change so unique. “Our tees are made from organic cotton or bamboo and they have a great fit! They are super soft and comfortable. They not only help you look good, but they make you feel good, through the positive messages on each shirt, and do good, by planting a tree for every shirt purchased,” says Andreea.
