The Coats for the Cold Outreach is over but the momentum is not!











































To everyone that donated sweatshirts, jackets and coats...Thank you!  And to Bryan, Brad, Shane, Natalie, Mckinney, Tyler, Jaime, Chloe, Cory, my pops, and my girlfriend, Emily...Thank you guys for your time, effort and bravery in joining me to visit the less-fortunate on Skid Row.  I could not have done it without you guys! 


So what now?
Amplyfy was a concept in November and December of 2010 that has turned into a clothing line.  The plan of action now is to create AMPLYFY CLOTHING; a line of clothing that will only consist of tee shirts and jackets (for now) that all of you can purchase.  What seperates AMPLYFY CLOTHING from the rest of the clothing lines out there is that I will give a tee shirt to the homeless everytime you purchase a tee shirt and I will give a jacket to the homeless everytime you purchase a jacket.  It's that easy.

I will have a better idea of when this clothing will be available for purchase in a couple weeks.  Till then, I challenge you to step out of your comfort zones and say hello to a stranger that's living on the streets...you'd be surprised where that step will take you.

Sincerely,

Jake Haney
AMPLYFY CLOTHING

So I was going through all the bags of jackets you guys gave me to organize it for tomorrow night's drop-off and I stumbled across a bag full of these...a little on the odd side.
