'If I could do just one near perfect thing i'd be happy'

About Me

Yellow Bird Project is a Montreal-based, non-profit initiative. We collaborate with musicians in designing a T-shirt, we print and sell them on our website, and all of the money we make goes to charity. Which charity? Each of the artists gets to choose their own. We have three fundamental aims:1) To make money for charities directly through T-shirt sales. 2) To raise awareness for charity organizations through artists’ endorsement. 3) To raise the profile of the artists we like.We have specifically approached individuals that we think are creative and conscientious enough to make a difference. Visit our web-site, buy a t-shirt, make a difference!Come check out what's going down at YBP...
