Design Trends: Mission Trip T-Shirts

Going on a mission trip is a life-changing experience, but it’s also expensive. If you’re looking for interesting ways to raise funds for your next adventure, a t-shirt campaign could be right for you.

The first step in setting up your mission trip t-shirt fundraiser is designing your products. We know that this seemingly simple first step can actually be the most intimidating part of the process. So, we’ve gone through our community design archives to bring you some inspiration. We hope this will help you create a mission trip shirt that your community will love!

Country Outlines

Where are you going on your mission trip? Incorporating the shape of the state, country, or continent you are traveling to is a simple way to make a generic design specific to your trip. You can either outline the country or fill the space in. Think about how you can combine words that define your trip with the outline of the location. Does the country look similar to a letter in the alphabet? Can you fill the outline with a meaningful phrase?

Bold Phrases

Let the words speak for themselves. Short and spunky text designs are a great way to appeal to potential customers, while also speaking to your heart for serving.  Get creative when you’re spelling out meaningful words. Think about how you can layer parts of a word on top of each other or use unique fonts to draw attention to a keyword. Bold statements about love, kindness, and changing the world make for a great mission trip shirt design.

inspiring-verses
Inspiring Verses

Is there a phrase or scripture that is constantly popping up in your head? Don’t ignore that! Draw or write it out and incorporate it into your design. Consider phrases that have been encouraging to you or your community as you have been preparing for this trip. Shirts with an illustrated verse can appeal to your broader community, and even those who don’t know you, just because the design looks so cool or because that’s a verse that they love too.
