Sustainability

Community
The power of giving back to community is at the heart of what we do. Every year we donate hundreds of shirts to local homeless shelters (read more). Every month, we create a custom design or illustration that benefits a featured non-profit or rescue mission. Check out our nonprofit’s page to see the amazing, local organizations we’ve had the pleasure of working with, what we’ve done and how they have made the world a better place.
Quality
All of our printing is done in-house by our sister company, Visual Impressions. We never outsource or use outside sources for any part of our production. This allows us to guarantee the highest quality workmanship available, and more importantly, pass all the savings TO YOU!
The History of INK
1990
Two brother in-laws, Jay and Todd, founded an apparel printing company called Visual Impressions. As the duo grew this business into the 100,000 square foot factory it currently resides in, they noticed a pattern. A majority of their clients were organizations or individuals with intentions to buy batches of shirts for their fundraising efforts.
As they continued to fulfill more and more orders, they heard stories from users ordering too many or too few shirts and worst of all - losing much needed fundraising revenue.
In an effort to establish a platform that served as the solution - Jay and Todd actively sought out a way to allow their customers a simple, free to use, and more profitable fundraising outlet.
Jay and Todd spent two years building and developing the website but in early 2012, Ink to the People was born. Their purpose was simple: to launch a platform that makes it free and easy for anyone to raise money online with custom, high quality apparel.
2012
Ink to the People has done exactly that. We have dedicated ourselves to serving the people by helping thousands of individuals and organizations raise more than $2,000,000 for causes and charities of special significance to them.
Over the years, we have maintained that mindset and allowed your feedback to drive our improvements. With Ink to the People, there’s no limit to your fundraising potential. Our passionate and enthusiastic staff has your back every step of the way. We are humbled everyday by the success of our clients and are proud to have the opportunity to work on your behalf as you strive to make the world a better place.
