The Beginning
Pwn Diabetes was established on November 21, 2007. We started out on MySpace by
communicating to Jonas Brothers fans and letting them know about our purpose.
Through designing, printing and selling Jonas Brothers related merchandise we
are able to donate 100% of the profits to the American Diabetes Association to
go towards finding a cure. Since then, Pwn Diabetes has grown and come far from
its beginnings, raising over $3,000 to date.
Why Diabetes?
We thought diabetes would be a fitting cause to donate towards because Nick
Jonas of the Jonas Brothers is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Diabetes affects
not only the person diagnosed, but their friends and family as well so we feel
that working towards a diabetes cure helps not only Nick and his family, but
everybody with the disease, who can too be Jonas Brothers fans.
Why Pwn Diabetes?
We are able to provide durable and unique Jonas Brothers related merchandise
while making a difference, so you can purchase from us knowing the money put
toward your purchase is going toward a good cause. You can rock the merchandise
and know that you're helping Nick Jonas and other diabetics. We work hard to
make sure you are completely satisfied with your purchase and ship it to you as
soon as possible.
How We Work
Unlike other clothing businesses, we personally print your merchandise. We own
professional silk screen printing equipment among other things that make it
possible for us to make your stuff here in Austin, Texas. Instead of having them
printed and shipped from somewhere else, your things are printed and packaged to
you by us.
Who is Pwn
Diabetes?
Pwn Diabetes is run by Jessica Resendiz and Sarah Paige. Jessica handles the
website and other social networking sites (Twitter, MySpace, Facebook, etc.),
designs, item inventory, and merchandise printing and shipping. Sarah receives
the mail-in orders and mails the donations.
