While you might think Ausmusic T-Shirt Day is just a good excuse to wear your most-played Aussie band’s tee to work, it’s actually an important fundraising initiative that raised a record-breaking $904,656 for charity last year.
All the funds raised by Ausmusic T-Shirt Day go towards crisis relief, mental health and wellbeing support to musicians, managers, crew, music workers and organisations, along with support for First Nations music workers.
So what can you do to support Ausmusic T-Shirt Day? The simplest thing to do is buy a T-shirt from an Aussie band you love, but if you really want to help raise funds for the charity then head over to the Ausmusic T-Shirt Day website and grab a tee from their selection of exclusive merch.
You’ll find unique band tees feature designs celebrating Aussie acts such as Cold Chisel, Gang of Youths, GFlip, Nick Cave, Kylie Minogue and more. The good thing about buying directly from Support Act is you know 100% of the profits go directly to helping those who need it. You can also get involved with fundraising events or donate directly to Support Act.
