OBEY CLOTHING AWARENESS THE HUMAN TRIAL
It's been almost ten years since one of my four sons was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes--it changed our carefree lives overnight.
Ever since then, I’ve been committed to raising awareness and funds for a cure through the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and becoming involved as Executive Producer of “The Human Trial” a feature length documentary about diabetes and the search for a cure.
Our film is breaking new ground as we follow a clinical trial that could cure a major disease. We are following a handful of patients as they go through Phase 2 of this trial, putting a face on T1D in the process. Our ultimate goal is to raise the public profile of this widely misunderstood disease and help lead the nation to new support, money and research towards a cure.
OBEY Awareness/THT t-shirts help keep the global diabetes conversation going.
Since we're an independent film — and following science in real time isn’t cheap — we continue to raise funds to keep the cameras rolling. International graphic artist Shepard Fairey, who has T1D, selected "The Human Trial" for the fall 2015 Obey Awareness campaign—he designed our movie poster and now t-shirts!
My sons, Oliver, 15, and Taylor, 26, and I are wearing them above.
100% of the profits of each limited edition THT t-shirt that we sell supports the making of our film.
Obey Awareness “The Human Trial” tees for men and women cost $30. You can purchase here.
