Music Notes: A Journal - Jennifer Jenkins

Yellow Bird Project is a Montreal-based organization dedicated to bringing musicians, charities, and T-shirts together. Seeking to raise awareness and make money for charities, YBP collaborates with musicians to create unique T-shirts which they print and sell on their website (www.yellowbirdproject.com). All proceeds go to a charity of the musician's choice. YBP has three fundamental aims: 1) To make money for charities directly through T-shirt sales. 2) To raise awareness for charity organizations through artists' endorsements 3) To raise the profile of the artists they like. Eleanor Rudge is a freelance illustrator based out of Brighton, England. She's created artwork for The New York Times, Plan B Magazine, and a number of bands: Bon Iver, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, and the Tallest Man on Earth. Some of the charities YBP has worked with in the past: Art for Change Greenpeace Road Recovery Teenage Cancer Trust Free Arts for Abused Children Mercy Corps ANAC Amnesty International Le Chainon The Nature Conservancy Class Casters Union Safe Space Transportation Alternatives Lake Ontario Waterkeeper ALS Society of BC Aids Society Interval House ONEXONE
