Armbands for Direct Action

States are asked to prepare armbands for people participating in Direct Action each Monday. The armbands will specifically be used for those participating in civil disobedience that week.

Therefore, states will need 150 armbands each week for states participating in the full 40 day. For states doing only the first week of action - you will need 150 total.

●       States have the option to 1) Screen print 2) Stencil 3) Stamp unbleached muslin or cotton fabric.

●       Each week will be a different color ink

○       Week 1: Dark Red

○       Week 2: Yellow

○       Week 3: Black

○       Week 4: Dark Green

○       Week 5: Grey

○       Week 6: Orange

●       If states cannot produce armbands w/the logo - they can choose to do colored armbands for each week with no marking

○       Week 1: Dark Red

○       Week 2: Yellow

○       Week 3: Black

○       Week 4: Dark Green

○       Week 5: Grey

○       Week 6: Orange

If you want to do a stencil or stamp, here is a link to the logo.

We also have a file for screen printing if you have screen printing capacity - email Charon Hribar at charon@povertyinitiative.org and she will share the correct file.
