Topman t-shirts to raise funds for Everyman
Howard Lake | 27 May 2003 | News
For the second year running retailer Topman will be selling T-shirts in June to raise funds for Everyman during male cancer awareness month.
June 2003 marks the sixth annual everyman male cancer awareness month. This year’s T-shirts from Topman feature a tongue-in-cheek approach to this serious issue.
David Shepherd, Topman Brand Director, said: “It is important for us to tackle the topics in quite a humorous way to make it more accessible to our customer and I think we have achieved that. We managed to double our donation last year from the previous year and raised £42,000.”
The eye-catching T-shirts and vests, with slogans such as ‘Guy’s you gotta check out your¦’ will go on sale in Topman stores nationwide from May 25th and will retail at £15. Topman will be donating £5 from the sale of each T-shirt to everyman.
