PEACE IS ALL WE NEED.
"Sometimes it falls upon a great generation to be great. You can be part of that great generation." -Nelson Mandela
I'm all about fashion for a cause, that's a given. I must admit though, I have seen the Omni Peace t-shirts worn by a few celebrities here and there but I thought nothing of it - I figured it was just another fad hence the peace sign. That was until I looked at the t-shirt more in depth and noticed that the fist was in the shape of Africa. That triggered me to look up more information on this t-shirt and I was happy at my results.
WHAT IS OMNI PEACE?
OmniPeace was founded by Los Angeles-based entrepreneur Mary Fanaro who's vision is to address vital humanitarian needs through the distribution and sale of consumer products, raise awareness of extreme poverty in sub-Saharan Africa and galvanize support for Millennium Promise. By purchasing an OmniPeace branded product, consumers now have the vehicles to become activists while participating in Millennium Promise’s call to action.

OMNI PEACE IS SPONSORED THROUGH MILLENIUM PROMISE
MILLENIUM PROMISE is a non-profit organization founded by economist and global anti-poverty crusader, Dr. Jeffrey Sachs. Their goal is to end extreme poverty by 2025. Their mission is to work village by village in Africa, to empower the poor with the skills and tools they need to pull themselves out of poverty and become self sustainable after 5 years. If we all do our part:
-We can save the lives of 30 million children who would otherwise die before reaching the age of 5.
-More than 500 million people will no longer struggle to live on less than $1 a day.
-More than 250 million people will no longer suffer from hunger.

Millennium Promise is our generation's commitment to ourselves, our fellow citizens and to our children, in the quest for a more peaceful and prosperous world. This is a task for us all. Millennium Promise is your partner in that task.
THE GOAL
There comes a time in every generation when the necessity for change is thrust upon us. A time when civilization redefines itself and momentum builds to bring down a status quo that people are no longer willing to accept; the abolition of slavery, woman's liberation, the fall of the Berlin wall, apartheid and now extreme poverty and disease. Help give the poorest people in the world a chance to survive by purchasing an OmniPeace branded product.
Contribute to the fight against extreme poverty in sub-Saharan Africa and empower African villages to become self sustainable!
