Community Box: Addictions Edition
Community Box: Addictions Edition
The Community Box:
We partnered with two teenagers from Portage Ontario, a live-in rehabilitation centre for youth ages 14-18, to design a Crewneck Sweater that is both meaningful and personal to their journeys with substance addictions.
The sweaters are 100% Combed Ring Spun (meaning they feel incredibly soft), ethically manufactured by Just Like Hero, and embroidered locally in Waterloo, Ontario. The sweaters are perfect for a weekend outfit, and can also be stylized to suit almost any social occasion.
The fit is unisex, and we recommend ordering a size smaller if you are stuck between two sizes! Sizing chart can be found here.
Creators:
Tobias and Benjamin are the two youth creators behind this sweater. The design is a reminder to our community that ‘Addicts are People too’.
Empowerment:
Creators are typically paid $50 for their time, earn 5%-12% from every sale, and 50% of net profits.
Since our two Creators are currently living in rehab at Portage Ontario, their portions of the profit share will instead be donated to Portage for use as a leadership fund for their entire community.
