COPAKE, N.Y. - April 4, 2013 - PRLog -- FreshStart Brands™ extends their own mission of raising money and awareness for worthwhile causes by partnering with well-known global advocate of “positive change through music education”, the Playing For Change Foundation.  Through this meaningful partnership, these organizations will expand their reach, support each other’s efforts, and continue to raise awareness of how art and music can make a difference.  

FreshStart Apparel has released two new designs by FreshStart artists Rosannah von Moritz, creator of Scottie & Rooh http://www.scottieandrooh.com and Michael Nouri.  The sale of these new additions to the FreshStart portfolio will support the Playing For Change Foundation.  For each garment sold, FreshStart will donate $5 to the foundation.  Available in multiple styles and sizes, the first design “Music” is featured on mens/unisex tee shirts, sizes S – XXL and ladies fitted tee shirts size XS – XL.  Additionally, the second design “New Friends” is featured on ladies tee shirts, sizes XS – XL and toddler tees, sizes 2T – 4T as well as infant onesies, sizes 0-6, 6-12 and 12-18 months.

FreshStart Brands President Adam Reznikoff stated, “The music and videos of Playing For Change have had a direct impact on my life and personal transformation. I’m excited about the opportunity to work together to support their mission and share their work with the FreshStart Community and beyond.”  Mr. Reznikoff continued, “The music and videos they have created are inspirational and pure magic. I’ve been telling people about them for years and am totally psyched about their presence in our community and the opportunity to share their magic en masse as we continue to grow.”

Playing For Change Foundation, Director of Communications and Special Events, Shauna Murray shared, “When Adam first approached Playing For Change about becoming a beneficiary of the FreshStart program, we were really inspired to learn about the effort FreshStart is making to give back to charitable organizations like ours through the company's t-shirt sales. Our organizations share a common passion for social activism and we're looking forward to working together with FreshStart to raise funds and awareness for the Playing For Change Foundation.”

Ms. Murray also stated, “We are excited to be in a partnership with an organization seeking to make a positive contribution to the global community. Funds raised through this initiative will go toward supporting our eight music schools and programs in Africa and Nepal. On behalf of the students, teachers, and everyone at the foundation, we are grateful to FreshStart for sharing this opportunity and for joining us in the movement to create positive change through music education.”

With a constant desire to make the world a better place, both organizations have embraced new opportunities and partnerships to not only keep their respective missions alive and well, but also expand them to new audiences and further reaches.  “Beyond the Reach” is not considered an impossibility for FreshStart Brands or Playing For Change, but merely a continuous aspiration.
