Ask HN: How can I sell these charity shirts?

1 points by klbarry 14y ago ↗ HN

I work for a sustainabke denim start-up, and our company is selling shirts on our site with profits going to charity that helps builds sustainable nutrition in African schools, + we're adding a $5 donation from ourselves for each shirt. We misjudged how popular they would be and havn't sold many. Any ideas for how to move some shirts?

What kind of advertising have you done for it?

Email blast, facebook awareness, a retweet contest using a pair of sustainable designer jeans (our main product) as the prize. None of these led to sales, though, sales came from somewhat randomly from visitors.
