The Custom Ink Three Hearts Initiative

With the Custom Ink Three Hearts Initiative, we put how much we care about our customers, team members, community and environment into action.

Our Three Hearts

It's no coincidence that our mascot, Inky, is an octopus. While everyone knows an octopus has eight arms, you might not be aware that every octopus also has three hearts. Think of all the love we can spread!

Doing the right thing, for our community, for our customers, for our Inkers, makes us happy. That’s why Custom Ink encourages community service, supports volunteer initiatives, and donates to Inkers’ charitable activities. We’re proud of our team’s generous spirit and the countless charitable efforts individual Inkers have started. Turns out, Inky isn’t the only one around here with three hearts.

I graduated college and actively searched for a job with an uplifting and inspiring team environment that would encourage me to reach my full potential. The Three Hearts Initiative and Custom Ink's evolving philanthropic efforts give me an opportunity to enjoy a more connected and fulfilling place in my community.

Make-A-Wish^®

Custom Ink believes that custom t-shirts make special occasions even more special! That’s why we’ve partnered with Make-A-Wish, which grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.

Through Custom Ink, “wish kids” will be able to commemorate their wish experience with custom t-shirts they design personally. Custom Ink is thrilled to provide shirts that will help make these outings even more momentous and become a wonderful keepsake for all involved.

A panel of judges selected us for our extraordinary volunteer efforts, addressing an unmet need and for our innovative and unique approach to volunteerism.
