Our Story

We want to welcome and thank you for your interest in My Happy Shirts.  By now we hope you know My Happy Shirts is  more than just a t-shirt company, because for every shirt purchased, we give a shirt to a child in need.  We want to promote optimism and happiness globally through the support and advocating for orphans and children in need around the world.  Our t-shirts designs represent the things that make you happy:  hobbies to animals, professions, activities, sports, and anything else in between.  Each shirt design is labeled with our expression “My Happy” to help you share your happy with those around you.

It is our hope that your My Happy Shirt will become your favorite shirt for many reasons, but here are the three that are important for us: First, It fits and feels great.  Second, the design is something that makes you happy and you want to share it with others.  Finally, by purchasing your new t-shirt , you are also giving one to a child in need through our “giving program”.  Please also check out our Fundraiser and Co-Branding programs.

Thank you for your support!

Our First – The Original “My Happy”

While at a music festival in 2005, the brother-in-law of our Chief Happy Guy Eric, was wearing a straw hat, which had no reason to be on his head for many reasons, but it resulted in many laughs and smiles from the people around him.  This moment was captured and printed as a cartoon sketch of a “Happy Farmer” on a t-shirt, and thus the birth of “My Happy Shirts”.

Last year, during the adoption of their daughter and learning first hand the needs of orphaned children in underdeveloped regions, Eric and his family decided it was time to create a giving program as part of every sale.  Thus began our mission to advocate and support orphans around the world.
