#Strides Against Stigma-NAMI Champaign Virtual Event + Fundraiser 2020--NOW EXTENDED ONE WEEK--10/28

NEW!! WE'VE EXTENDED OUR FUNDRAISER ONE MORE WEEK!!-- Until Oct 28th ! Our Goal is $2500 this year & with your help, I know we can make it! Please pass the word along to your family, friends and colleagues. We added the "Find NAMI" logo on the front of a colorful set of items, so if you had already looked at the apparel, you might take a second look!

================================================

NAMI Champaign (National Alliance on Mental Illness) is taking strong Strides against the STIGMA surrounding mental health. Show your support for 'stomping' Stigma and join the Mental Health Awareness movement! Some of us would like to keep 2020 more focused on being 'Stigma Free' (in more ways than one!), so we have designed several messages for our Shirt Logos this year that have been a combined effort from our NAMI UIUC Campus collegiate students and NAMIChampaignvolunteers.Whether you like short sleeves, long sleeves, hoodies or prefer a FULLZip-up Sweatshirt-- there's a style and a design that everyone should like!

========================================

>>> One of the first Logo designs has our new 2020 Mantra saying: "Listen more. Judge less, Find NAMI" printed on the front of the shirt---with six different colors & styles of shirts to choose from! We want people to ask " What is NAMI" & "Why are you involved in it?"

>>> If you are someone who would rather have a smaller design on the front of your apparel, then THIS IS THE STYLE FOR YOU!! It has a smaller green ribbon for Mental Health Awareness on the front left corner of the shirt and then on the back is where the heart of the message is:
"Listen more. Judge Less. Find NAMI"..... to remind ourselves, and others, that NAMI is always there for you. No matter where you live across the country.
With this group of six styles, you've find a FULL Zip-Up Performance Sweatshirt along with a regular hoodie + short sleeve + a Long sleeve tee in the mix!

>>> The third design showcases our Affiliate's very own proud theme, "#Strides Against Stigma" for our annual Walk--- this year a Virtual Walk--- on the front of the shirt/sweatshirt along with our NAMI Champaign's web address.

>>>> Besides the styles/Logos on the apparel,We have two other items with a striking green Mental Health Awareness ribbon on them.There is a hot-cold Insulated Tumbler--perfect for a cold drink on these changing weather days or to have your hot chocolate ready as you sit around a Fall campfire. Maybe not a stocking stuffer, but it would be a great gift to say "Thank you" to someone.Or what about asharp-looking graphite-grey 15" Computer/Messenger Bag?! Large enough to hold your laptop, and that Zip-up Sweatshirt -- in case you get cold on your way to get your morning coffee or heading to your Family-to-Family class(socially distancing, with a mask, of course!)

>> Just to clarify the shipping options, when you select "DROP SHIPPING", your purchases will be shipped directly to your house or where you decide you want them.The shipping cost of the FIRST item in each campaign is $4.99 and each item after that will only cost $1.99 to drop ship together. Because the tumblers and the computer bags ship from different vendors than the shirts, once again, the FIRST tumbler and the FIRST computer bag will cost $4.99 to ship each, then $1.99 for each subsequent purchased item from that category.
>> The maximum postage that someone would pay for having multiple items in the same campaign or category is $9.99
