Hate cancer? Us too. Express your anti-cancer sentiment by wearing one of these tshirts from 541 Threads, a Bend company that donates four meals to NeighborhoodImpact‘s  food bank for every shirt they sell.

The local clothing company is continuing to give back with its PG-13 “eff cancer” tshirt campaign. $5 from each shirt sale will be directly donated to Jen Burgess Thompson, a popular Redmond photographer who is currently battling stage three ovarian cancer. 

The t‐shirts are now available on the 541 Threads website. Available in men’s and women’s (v-neck) versions (and there’s no white splatter paint/bird poop effect on the shirts, a la my screenshot. Not sure why it loaded like that).
