My dear friend, Edwin & Tric start up a global cause, (which in my thought a very meaningful act). That being said, I would like to give them my utmosts support. (You guys can link them up over at my stalk site section)
The below description is taken from core77 topic index. Do drop by their blog, it is still in the mids of processing though, but I do hope, you guys will help/discuss/spread the word for such sustainable project.

One Million Tee is a concept that initiates to sell 1,000,000 t-shirts. Each tee is unique with a number ranging from 1 to 1,000,000. It is to be sold online with buyers choosing their desired number. One number is only available for one tee.
Our mission is to be a sustainable project that sells t-shirts and uses it profits to create sustainable business and job opportunities in Africa. To create change that last. The first collection is focused on Africa. We will also contribute to other causes that improve the lives of people and the earth.
We focus on Africa because we believe real change is coming especially during World Cup South Africa 2010. The time will come when we see how capable and talented the Africans are. All they need is just opportunities.
What Africa really needs are job and job opportunities. When they have a job to earn a living, they have money for food, medicines, and to send their children to school. With education, their children’s lives will change forever and their generations to come. This will be a permanent change that no amount of donations and aid can help.
Currently we're still working on the official website to come up and looking for any supplier ( for the ready made t-shirt manufactured by African,preferably in Asia) and also a partner to work with.
