Just a heads up to everyone who has ordered our Gunnery Sgt. Thomas J. Sullivan "Believe In Boston" benefit tee - we have been shipping packages for the past week, but have only made it about half way through the over 2,000 orders that we have received.  It's a ton of work, literally months worth of orders in days. We know Sully's customers are accustomed to getting their packages within a day or two - we just ask for your patience as we climb through everything to get them all out!  In better news, we sent our first check to the Gunnery Sgt. Thomas J. Sullivan Fund yesterday and it was in the amount of $33,297.20, so thank you so much for your support of these efforts!

Two days in, and we've sold over 1,500 Gunnery Sgt. Thomas J. Sullivan Memorial BELIEVE IN BOSTON t-shirts!  The outpouring of support has been incredible.  We have been printing t-shirts all day today, and will be working on folding and packing over the next few days, with hope to get them all out into the mail by Tuesday.  Thank you for your support, I've spoken with a member of the Sullivan family and they are so appreciative of the response.  We'll be posting more in the blog about this fund raiser - how much it brings in, what the family wishes to do with it, and the status of the entire first wave of orders so please stay tuned.  You can still grab one HERE!

Shortly after the July 16th terror attack at the Naval reserve center in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Bill Coons -a neighbor of victim Gunnery Sgt. Thomas J. Sullivan, reached out to us to see if we could possibly help create a fund raising t-shirt in memory and honor of the fallen Marine from Massachusetts (who also shared our namesake).

Our "BELIEVE IN BOSTON" trademark has graced dozens and dozens of Sully's t-shirts, and most notably on our Boston One Fund fundraising tee (sales of which have allowed us to donate over $60,000 to the One Fund to date).

After receiving the blessing of John Sullivan from Sgt. Sullivan's family, we have retooled our recent "BELIEVE IN BOSTON" t-shirt, as a black print on an olive drab tee which includes a tagline that reads "In Memory of Gunnery Sgt. Thomas J. Sullivan".  This military inspired t-shirt will be available for a limited time, and all profits from the sale of this special edition are being forwarded to Sgt. Sullivan's family.  This t-shirt is available for purchase now, and will start shipping on or before Tuesday, July 28th.  Grab one HERE.
