FASHION WITH A PURPOSE
Behind every tee is a bigger mission.
Tees for a Cure is an initiative by Breast Cancer Cure, a New Zealand charity dedicated to funding research to improve the prevention, detection and treatment of breast cancer. Every purchase helps support the scientists working towards better outcomes and a future free from the fear of breast cancer.
Now in its 11th year, the campaign continues to bring the fashion industry and community together, showing how creativity can make a real difference.
As Breast Cancer Cure’s Christchurch Brand Partner through 2027, The Crossing is proud to welcome Tees for a Cure back to the precinct and support an initiative that brings people together for such an important cause.
