**A platform has launched that aims to help charities connect with supporters and
make a profit through selling custom clothing.**

[Everpress](https://everpress.com/charities) uses the crowdfunding model to let 
charities and other nonprofit organisations design and launch their own clothing
for events and campaigns with no upfront costs.

Charities can upload their custom designs and create a campaign for free, control
the look and feel of their store, and access live sales data during the campaign.
Once a campaign has been created, it can be shared through social media with orders
collected for a predefined period. The charity is charged nothing, and no items 
are produced until the minimum number of orders required for a campaign to become
profit-making has been reached.

The minimum order requirement for this to happen is five, and all materials used
in the clothing produced are ethically produced. Under the Everpress system, charities
keep all the profits, while Everpress handles the selling process from payment to
print and shipping once the campaign has ended.

A number of charities and nonprofit organisations have already used the platform,
including [Musicians without Borders](https://www.musicianswithoutborders.org/),
and the [Amy Winehouse Foundation](http://www.amywinehousefoundation.org/), which
raised over £3,800 in a three-week period with its first campaign, and launched 
its second campaign in December.

Alex Econs, Everpress founder and CEO said:

> “Traditional methods of producing clothing can be prohibitively expensive and 
> time consuming for charities. We set up Everpress to make the process more viable
> for nonprofits by ensuring that there are no setup costs or minimum order requirements,
> and that all profits go straight to the charity.”
