Youth Venture

Custom Screen printed and embroidered apparel for high school and youth-based orgs

Apsurd started as youth Venture that created social, environmental, and animal-right themed shirts to sell. Shirt sales raised awareness proceeds went to organizations committed to these causes.
Not all things went as planned and we encountered many "harder than anticipated" obstacles primarily associated with the business side of our venture. By trying to print, design, sell, and market everything, we had a long way to go.
Today Apsurd has morphed into a legitimate business that screen prints and embroiders custom apparel for high schools and other youth based orgs. We intend to fulfill our youth Venture commitment by launching a guidance/mentoring type educational platform for youth interested in the business aspect of ventures. The bottom line: ventures take money, so being more efficient at business means more resources for your venture and greater sustainability!
Apsurd has allowed us to learn:
How to print shirts
PHP/mysql web coding (www.apsurd.com)
How to start a business (legal/business planning)
Marketing principles (very good stuff!)
If anyone has any questions regarding these things or anything in general, please do not hesitate to ask.
Also, if any of you guys need custom printed shirts, hoodies, jackets, tote bags, either for fundraisers, spreading awareness, special events, or as personal Venture attire, we would LOVE to help you guys out.
We cater specifically to youth based orgs. We accept any form of artwork and will actively work with you to edit, color, develop and/or create designs.
We also have great deals available only to youth ventures as our way of supporting you guys. This does not mean that we outfit you in cheapy gear though as we offer some of the best quality hoodies around (we use manufacturers that some major surf and clothing companies use)
Please leave a message, call , email, or chat with me and we can definitely help you out. Or go to our site!
Thanks everyone!
