Three New Designs Announced for UNIQLO's PEACE FOR ALL Charity T-Shirt Project - Two years since project launch, donations exceed 1.2 billion yen, with more than four million T-shirts sold globally

Global apparel retailer UNIQLO today announces the worldwide release of three new designs for its ongoing PEACE FOR ALL charity T-shirt project. All profits from sales of PEACE FOR ALL T-shirts are donated to international humanitarian organizations UNHCR (the UN refugee agency), Save the Children, and Plan International, for use in global peace projects. The three new designs will be available from Friday, June 21.

The PEACE FOR ALL project features T-shirts with designs expressing a wish for peace, provided voluntarily by friends of UNIQLO who support the aim of "taking action for world peace." The latest designs have been created by three new collaborators: designer Tokujin Yoshioka, photographer Saul Leiter, and artist Han Meilin.

Thanks to widespread support from customers, more than four million PEACE FOR ALL T-shirts have been sold since the launch of the project in June 2022, with the total amount of donations from sales exceeding 1.2 billion yen. Funds raised to date have been used to provide emergency humanitarian assistance to protect the lives of displaced people around the world, and to support children who are living in difficult circumstances due to conflict and persecution.

Koji Yanai, Fast Retailing Group Senior Executive Officer, commented: "We are extremely pleased that PEACE FOR ALL, which was launched two years ago to spread the message of peace, and to make a positive change in the world through T-shirts, has resonated with so many people, raising 1.2 billion yen in donations. I would like to express our gratitude once again to all the customers, collaborators, and partner organizations who have supported us so far in this project. At the same time, we hope to continue to expand the project further, so that the message of a wish for peace will reach the many people facing difficult circumstances around the world."

Messages from new collaborators

Collaborator statement	T-shirt design
Tokujin Yoshioka(Artist, Designer) "Light for Peace The reflection emits a light of hope. The light is a wish for peace."
Saul Leiter(Photographer) Saul Leiter had a knack for capturing peaceful moments that hush the considerable noise of New York City. "It's been decided that I have a penchant for quietness," he once said with a chuckle. Whether Leiter was observing a gentle kiss in Times Square amid the hubbub of New Year's Eve celebrations, or finding a solitary young girl in a red coat making a snowball behind a downtown apartment building, the photographer communed with his surroundings to portray a uniquely tranquil vision of his beloved New York.
Han Meilin(Artist) "I've created numerous animal drawings, driven by my deep love for nature and animals. The true calling of an artist lies in treating all forms of life with kindness. I see the world through a heart filled with love, dedicated to the pursuit of peace. The dove, holding an olive branch, stands as a powerful symbol of peace, and its impact reaches far beyond the canvas. Great love knows no bounds."

Messages from partner organizations

United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) www.unhcr.org
"We at UNHCR express our sincere gratitude for the donation Fast Retailing and its UNIQLO customers have made through 'PEACE FOR ALL.' The additional donation from this campaign will enable us to address refugees' immediate needs during emergencies and create lasting solutions for refugees in health care, WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene), livelihoods and self-reliance. With over 110 million people forcibly displaced due to conflict and persecution, your contributions are critical for UNHCR's swift response, particularly in the Rohingya emergency and pressing crises in Afghanistan, Ukraine, Syria, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Venezuela."
- Mr. Ayaki Ito, Representative, UNHCR Representation in Japan

Save the Children https://www.savethechildren.net/
"Thank you to everyone who has supported us through PEACE FOR ALL, and everyone who has purchased T-shirts. With the help of your donations, we have been able to deliver food, daily essentials, livelihood support, health, education, as well as mental health and psychosocial support, to many children affected by conflict and natural disasters around the world, including in Ukraine. "Clearly there is no inherent impossibility in saving the children of the world. It is only impossible if we make it so by our refusal to attempt it." This is a quote from Eglantyne Jebb, the founder of Save the Children. We look forward to supporting even more children around the world through your participation in the PEACE FOR ALL initiative."
- Akiko Takai, Executive Director cum Secretary General, Save the Children Japan

Plan International https://www.plan-international.org/
"Donations through "PEACE FOR ALL" are used for a project to prevent early marriage (child marriage) of ethnic minority girls in Ha Giang Province, Vietnam. Donations are used to improve children's educational environment, as well as raising awareness so that they can decide their own life. We feel truly honored to play a part in this valuable initiative together with you to build a more peaceful world and to help children lead their own lives. We show our deepest gratitude to UNIQLO to provide us with such a meaningful opportunity."
- Kiyoko Ikegami, Chair of the Board, Plan International Japan
