Watertown Police Department is working with a local business to produce a celebratory T-shirt to commemorate the elimination and capture of the Boston marathon bombing terrorists. The T-shirt is navy blue, and they have replaced 'Boston' with 'Watertown' to the slogan of 'Watertown Strong'. Proceeds from the T-shirt sales will go to foundation, which has yet to be created. (Watertown Patch)
The Boston marathon bombings were, and still are, an emotional subject. There have been many T-shirts created with proceeds going to a few common organization, such as The One Fund. But, this Watertown T-shirt being offered to an organization which has yet to be created, and with no understanding of who is helps does sit well with me. If someone found the time to coordinate the efforts of Watertown Police Department, TR Miller Company, Three Twins Productions, San Mar, NEW Clothing and Wired Blue to make the T-shirt available, surely the foundation (I'm assuming / expecting) will be a nonprofit organization with a goal to help those hurt by the bombings.
Do good things, but have a little more information when you press conference your intent to sell a T-shirt.
