Amici dei Bambini has been fighting child abandonment all over the world since 1986.
Every day, its volunteers work in orphanages to restore fundamental rights to abandoned children.
The right to a family, but even more important, the right to an identity, to childhood, to play. The fundamental right to continue to have a dream, to continue believing, against all the odds.

Alessi and Amici dei Bambini have launched a project with this goal: to listen to the dreams of abandoned children and to try to make them come true, one at a time.

T-DREAM, a collection of t-shirts by 8 masters of international design, has been created as part of this project to collect funds for the dreams of children living in orphanages in Colombia, Nepal, and Peru.

This t-shirt is much more than just a t-shirt: it is a symbol with enormous meaning to the 84 children and teenagers at the “Alma de Niño” hogar in Bogotá, to the 48 children at the “Buddhist child home” outside Kathmandu, and to the 100 children at the San Antonio Institute of Lima, each of whom has a dream waiting to come true.

Wearing it is a way for each of us to make a contribution.
It is a way to help these children dream again and, maybe, to dream along with them.

All proceeds from sales of these t-shirts will be donated to Amici dei Bambini for projects in Peru, Nepal, and Colombia.
