T-shirt Campaigns

A love of supporting charitable causes and Supernatural t-shirts are long-standing in the Supernatural fandom. So bringing them together was an obvious match. Starting in late 2014, Misha sold two fan designed shirts to raise money for Random Acts. Osric, Mark, Jensen and Jared followed over the next couple of months.

There have been other t-shirts sold associated with actors from the show, this entry documents those also associated with charitable fundraising.

In November 2015, Creation Entertainment set up Creation Stands, which partnered fan-designed shirts and art with actors to raise money for charities.

Misha's Holiday T-shirt

Charity: Random Acts
On Sale: November, 2014
Number Sold: 8,508

From Misha: I got sentimental watching SPN last night. It's been many years working on this show. Even longer for some others. Kids have been born, people have passed away. Lives have been touched. In 2010 i banded together with some SPN fans to start Random Acts. Since then we have funded and inspired thousands of charitable acts including the construction of an orphanage and the funding of a school. We have big ambitions for this coming year. We're going to try to build another school and launch a charity crowdsourcing platform that we hope will move mountains. If you want to support these projects, you can buy a T-shirt. 100% of proceeds will go to Random Acts and you will have a nice, warm shirt in time for the holidays. Buy a shirt and i promise we'll try to galvanize some good with the money we raise. (It's also a clever way for me to realize my life-long dream of resting my head on your chest. source
