In January 1969, the Black Panther Party initiated the People's Free Food Program, also recognized as the Free Breakfast for School Children Program, at St. Augustine's Episcopal Church in Oakland, California. Their inaugural breakfast served 11 children, offering a nourishing meal of grits, eggs, fruit, toast, and milk. By the week's end, participation had grown to 135 children. The program's impact burgeoned rapidly, spreading to 23 cities and catering to over 20,000 children by the end of 1969.

This initiative emerged as a direct response to pervasive poverty, with nearly one in three Black Americans falling below the poverty line at the time. The Black Panthers' advocacy exerted substantial pressure on the government, contributing to the expansion and eventual institutionalization of the federal School Breakfast Program in 1975. The program's success relied on the collaborative efforts of local businesses, churches, and community organizations, which generously donated both space and provisions to support its mission.

Keep your apparel looking great for ages:

• Printed apparel can be machine-washed cold, inside-out on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and like colors.
• Use non-chlorine bleach only when necessary. You shouldn't use any fabric softeners or dry-clean the items.
• Printed apparel can be tumble-dried on a low cycle, but hang-dry works best.
• When it comes to ironing, use cool iron inside-out. Don't iron the print.

We use the latest printing technology to offer a wide variety of products and color options. We use high-quality inks that won't fade for a long time if taken care of properly.

Keep in mind that garment blank manufacturer's care instructions (tags) don't take into consideration the printing process. So we suggest following the care instructions on this page to learn how to take care of your printed garments properly.

Follow these instructions carefully to avoid fading and cracking of the print, and shrinking of the garment that can occur if you wash or dry it on a high setting. Pro Tip: For ANY garment, it is especially wearing to roughly tumble dry them with heavier items (blankets/towels/jeans/etc).
