Beignet Fest Foundation launches ‘Mission Message’ t-shirt
NEW ORLEANS – The Beignet Fest Foundation is proud to announce the launch of a new, limited edition “mission message” t-shirt available for sale on the Beignet Fest website.
The custom shirt is designed to celebrate the strength and individuality of people on the autism spectrum. Proceeds from t-shirt sales benefit the Beignet Fest Foundation’s year-round programs, including Benny’s S.O.S. (Sensory On-Site Spaces), which provides sensory respite areas at public events, and Camp Benny, a summer day camp tailored for children with autism and developmental differences.
The shirt design features a bold and affirming message that reflects the foundation’s ongoing mission to celebrate, embrace, and empower children with autism and their families. By wearing the shirt, supporters can show their pride in neurodiversity while directly contributing to impactful, inclusive programming in the Greater New Orleans area.
“Our mission is rooted in building a world where individuals with autism are celebrated, supported, and included,” said Sherwood Collins, executive director. “This shirt provides a way for advocates to spread awareness, foster community pride, and generate critical funding for the services families count on.”
The “mission message” t-shirt is available online through our Merchandise page. All purchases directly support the Beignet Fest Foundation.
