EDUN LIVE ON CAMPUS
About EdunLIVE on Campus
http://www.edunliveoncampus.com/
EdunLIVE ON CAMPUS {ELOC} is a socially responsible T-shirt customization company. Their mission is to provide sustainable job opportunities in sub-Saharan Africa and to provide hands-on experiential learning of social entrepreneurship. They accomplish these goals by providing students the opportunity to develop a social entrepreneurial venture at their campus where they market and sell our edunLIVE 100% African T-shirts to college students who then create a unique design for their organization.
EdunLIVE t-shirts are “grower to sewer” African which means they are 100% African made- from the growing of the cotton, to the manufacturing of the fabric, to the creation of the t-shirt.
The first EDUN LIVE On Campus chapter was established in 2006 at Miami University and has since added other chapters at University of Notre Dame, Ohio State University, Simmons College, Gonzaga University, Tufts University, Middle Tennessee State University and The College of William & Mary.

About EDUN
http://www.edunonline.com/
EDUN is a socially conscious clothing company launched in Spring 2005 by Ali Hewson and Bono. The company's mission is to create beautiful clothing while fostering sustainable employment in developing areas of the world, particularly Africa.
EDUN is a for-profit business founded on the premise of trade, not aid as a means of building sustainable communities. The company works on a micro-level to help build the skill sets of factories where the clothes are produced. EDUN is currently produced in India, Peru, Tunisia, Kenya, Uganda, Lesotho, Mauritius and Madagascar. In addition, EDUN acts as a voice encouraging the fashion community to do business in Africa and thereby help bring the continent out of extreme poverty.
While EDUN's primary focus is trade, we are also working towards using more organic materials in the collection. Organic cotton is not only a responsible environmental solution, but also provides healthier working conditions and is a valuable market opportunity for farmers in Africa. Currently, all of our t-shirts are made from 100% organic cotton.
EDUN is a full fashion collection for men and women, including tops, bottoms, denim, dresses, jackets, knits and sweaters with prices ranging from $36 - $400. The line is sold in leading department stores including Selfridges, Harvey Nichols, Matches (England), Beams and Isetan (Japan), Barneys, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, and Fred Segal (US) as well as selected specialty stores worldwide as well as selected retailers in UK, Italy, France, Japan, and Sweden.
EDUN works with the following non-profits: DATA/ONE, OXFAM, Verité, Global Business Coalition, Organic Exchange, ALAFA, Miami University, MFA Forum, and ComMark.

The ONE Campaign and EDUN came together in 2006 to launch the ONE.org T-shirt by EDUN.
2006 and 2007 saw tens of thousands of t-shirts sold, delivering the message to millions of people worldwide that, together, we can help fight global disease and extreme poverty and bring fair trade and AIDS treatment to Lesotho, Africa.
The original ONE shirt created by EDUN - millions standing, united as ONE.
The second design by EDUN for ONE - United for Africa.
