or the last six years, The Daily Planet, Ltd. has teamed with StreetWise and local artists to make hand-screened designer
T-shirts and other merchandise to sell. This year, over 32 artists donated designs. It’s all part of a campaign called GiveAShi*t. 100% of the profits go to StreetWise. To date, GiveAShi*t has donated over $240,000 to StreetWise.
THE GIVEASHI*T TEAM: PAM HOFFMAN, SCOTT MARVEL, AND JEANNINE RINGLAND ZWIRN
“People in Chicago are always looking for different ways to give back to those in need and GiveAShi*t offers a chance to buy meaningful gifts for friends, family, and yourself while supporting the hardworking vendors of StreetWise,” said Scott Marvel, president of Daily Planet Productions and mastermind behind the GiveAShi*t Campaign. StreetWise helps homeless and at-risk individuals seeking to build a better life with employment opportunities. It provides a dignified means of addressing the crisis of poverty and homelessness, and provides individuals with immediate access to a respectable and legitimate earned income through their own hard work. Well-known on the streets of Chicago, StreetWise vendors make their own way to the StreetWise office where they pay $0.90 for the magazine they then sell for $2, making a $1.10 profit on each sale. The shirts can be purchased online at www.giveashirt.net. Select designs are also available as tank tops, tote bags, notebooks, coffee mugs, posters and hand towels.
