Details

Ancestral Hands Midwives is looking to diversify our revenue by creating our own line of Afrocentric merchandise.

We believe this project will require:

  • Develop merchandise designs (Ex. t-shirt design)
  • Research and compose a list of consultants that can help deliver this project
  • Find vendors that can manufacture the agreed upon items
  • Obtain full quotes included fees and timelines and provide recommendations on which vendor to use
  • Assist with research and initial steps of setting up an e-commerce site

The final deliverables include:

  • A report on the research, findings, and general design recommendations for the prototype(s) you developed.
  • Provide a recommended manufacturer for the merchandise item you were assigned.
  • Provide a recommended e-commerce platform based on your research.

We are excited to work with students who support our mission and want to have fun creating unique merchandise. Whether you're a fashion student, artist or you're just interested in what we do, we want to work with you.

Deliverables
  • Research
  • Communicating with manufacturers via email, phone, etc.
  • Graphic design (would be an asset)
Mentorship

We will provide ongoing support to students and conduct weekly check-ins. We are easily accessible by email, phone or web conference as needed.
