Grantee Spotlight: New Door Ventures
Have t-shirts to print? Need something embroidered? We at Tipping Point recommend using Ashbury Images, a New Door Ventures social enterprise.
Ashbury Images trains and provides internships for at-risk youth, helping them become employable for the rest of their lives. They do high-quality screen-printing and embroidery on t-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, caps, bags -- basically anything you can think of customizing.
They also just finished their new website, made possible by Tipping Point and the Taproot Foundation. Check out Ashbury Images here.
