How Choose901 Merch Fuels Memphis' Future

At City Leadership, 2024 has been bustling with vibrant activities and meaningful engagements, reflecting our commitment to fostering growth and opportunity in Memphis.

From hosting alternative spring breaks with Serve901, attracting hundreds of college volunteers, to helping educators find impactful roles through Teach901, and enhancing charitable giving with Give901, we've seen an inspiring wave of participation across the community. 

Among these initiatives, Choose901 Merch stands out as a symbol of local pride and a substantial contributor to our city’s development.

The Birth of Choose901 Merch

Back in 2012, the concept of selling t-shirts seemed daunting. The fear of unsold inventory loomed large. Yet, the unexpected popularity of homemade Choose901 shirts across Memphis sparked a realization: there was a thriving demand for local swag. People wanted to celebrate their connection to Memphis visibly and proudly.

More Than Just Apparel

Choose901 Merch has grown beyond a simple clothing line. It embodies the spirit of Memphis, offering residents and fans a chance to showcase their city pride creatively. What's more, each purchase directly supports City Leadership’s initiatives—leadership recruitment, development, and catalizing.

Our merch isn't just clothing; it's an investment in Memphis. It funds the very programs that enrich our community, from attracting and retaining talent to nurturing future leaders who will continue to drive our city forward.

A Market That Gives Back

This spring marks the first of three major markets for 2024, where the community can come together to discover fresh and exclusive Memphis-themed apparel. Each item sold translates into direct support for ongoing and future initiatives under City Leadership.

Beyond individual sales, we're expanding our horizons with co-branded school gear and corporate partnerships. This year, we'll also introduce corporate gifting options, allowing businesses to distribute Memphis-themed gifts that not only delight recipients but also give back to the community.

Join Us in Supporting Memphis

We invite you to join us at our upcoming market and throughout the year. By choosing Choose901 Merch, you're not just buying a product—you're making a statement and fueling the future of Memphis. Your support helps sustain a cycle of growth and giving that benefits all who live, work, and dream here.

Stay tuned for more opportunities, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you're interested in our co-branding or corporate gifting initiatives.

We appreciate your continued support, and more importantly, for your commitment to Memphis.
