In 2005, New Orleans suffered the devastating effects of Hurricane Katrina — 100 percent of the homes in the Lower Ninth Ward were rendered uninhabitable – and the efforts are still underway to help the region rebuild,” says Ford Bowers, SGIA president, according to a release.

The expo shirts were printed by , and all materials were donated by suppliers and manufacturers: shirts from Fruit of the Loom and screen printing equipment from Newman Roller Frames from Stretch Devices, Wilflex Ink by PolyOne, Shur Loc Panels, Murakami Mesh, Kiwo/Ulano Stencils, Easiway Systems Chemistry, PMI Tape, and Amagic Foils. T-shirts will be available at the expo for $5.
