Marica Hase Picks City of Hope to Benefit From Cancer T-Shirts

LOS ANGELES—Marica Hase—who recently underwent a double mastectomy and reconstruction surgery following a cancer diagnosis—announced City of Hope, Calif., will benefit from sales of an anti-cancer T-shirt she designed. “I have always wanted to design clothing, and now my dream has come true with these T-shirts,” Marica said. “It’s for a great cause, too. If these sell really well, I will be designing more clothing for Marrion Apparel, including jackets. They are manufacturing the shirts in Japan and shipping them here, so that’s why they’re $45 each, plus $5 goes to the City of Hope.” Marica teamed with Marrion Apparel, a Japanese company, to design the shirts that will benefit cancer research. The owner of Marrion Apparel’s mother also fought cancer, and that’s prompted them to approach Marica to design her #fuckcancer shirts. The shirts feature Marica and her sidekick Buusan on a pink cancer ribbon. The shirts come in grey, white and black and are unisex in sizes medium, large, XL, and XXL. Marica’s American fans can buy the T-shirts through her online store here. Use the coupon code FUCKCANCER to save $5 through Aug. 15 and also get a free signed 8x10 photo of Marica. Once you purchase the shirt, email Marica the size shirt you want at [email protected] For every shirt sold, $5 will be donated to the City of Hope. Overseas fans can order her tees directly from Marrion Apparel after Aug. 1 at Shop.Marrion-Apparel.com. Marrion Apparel will also have a special upcoming website featuring Marica and Buusan. Marica is currently on hiatus, but will be available in August for bookings.
