Africa T is a responsible-fashion project started in Torino, Italy, in 2008. Its main objective is to remind people everywhere in the world of the African continent. Africa T-shirts are colorful 100% cotton T-shirts across man, woman and baby-to-toddler styles. Their logo is the embroidered perimeter of the African continent. We are currently supporting the Ibo Island Montessori School Project, in Mozambique, to whom we have so far donated 10% of our revenue from our line of T-shirts. Manager of Continent Africa - a research organization based in Cape Town – Lindy Cohen, is responsible for managing the Africa T projects in Africa. This gives us the chance to monitor where the money is going and how it is used.
