Student starts t-shirt business

Phillip Westrick, St. Joseph College sophomore, uses his graphic design skills to help organizations raise money.  Westrick designs graphics for t-shirts and apparel then has it printed at-cost.  He said that way, the organizations get a greater return when they sell the shirts as a fundraiser. 

Westrick's company Chariteez, is currently promoting a t-shirt he designed to raise money for the for Susan G. Komen Foundation.  He is selling t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts, crew neck, and hooded sweatshirts for breast cancer
research.  Westrick said it was always his dream to own his own business. 

"It's cool when you know, you walk around and you see people wearing stuff that you've done, that's cool.  And with this is nice to be able to help out," Westrick said.

The Breast Cancer Awareness t-shirt sales will continue through November 15th.
